Bat Tower

The Bat Tower in Toys Hill nr. Sevenoaks in Kent.

The bat tower was once used as the water tower for the Weardale estate. After suffering damage in the 1987 storm, National Trust decided to convert the tower into a bat hibernaculum. The tower is well used by bats and they seem to like hanging out in their new home.

The Bat Tower was the inspiration of the National Trust's Wardens in North Kent. They felt the disuses water tower could be turned into a hibernation site bats. Built in 1906, the tower stands at the highest point on the Greensand Ridge in Kent, surrounded by 450 acres of woodland which is part of a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
