 tower, accommodation

Nicolle Tower is a tower in the parish of St Clement in Jersey. It was built in 1821 for Philippe Nicolle as a hexagonal folly house on the site of an earlier navigation tower on Mont Ubé.[1] It is adjacent to the Mont Ubé dolmen.

During the occupation of the Channel Islands the German forces made some modifications to this tower, extending its height with a new top floor, including narrow windows, so that they could use the tower as an observation post.
