Broxmouth

There was once a tower at Broxmouth but any trace of it has now gone.

In March 1312 the manor of Broxmouth was restored to Thomas Randolph by Edward I of England having been confiscated on account of him being a Scottish rebel.

It’s possible that a later tower was incorporated into the present mansion which dates to the late 18th century.
