Description
Hi Guys,
This monument is situated in Ulverston, Cumbria, which is in the North West of England and is located about 5 miles from my local airfield EGNL, Walney Island, Barrow-in-Furness.
It is a very important landmark for flying VFR and also represents you are entering the South Lake District area. You can see it for miles around.
The John Barrow Monument, Ulverston. Hoad Monument (proper name: the Sir John Barrow Monument) is a 100 ft (30.5 m) tower at the top of Hoad Hill (436 ft/133 m), to the north-east of Ulverston in the Furness area of north-west England. Paid for mainly by public subscription, the monument was erected in 1850 at a cost of £1250.
The below link is a YouTube video I made of it which will give you some sort of scale of the size of the monument.

I hope you can make this happen.
Keep up the great work
Kind regards
Heath
