Is This The Watch Tower

A Memory of Saltfleet.

I wonder if anyone can tell me if the tall black object in the distance in this photo is the coastguard watch tower which was at the top of Sea Lane throught the war and into the sixties or seventies. My grandfather was an auxiliary coastguard at Saltfleet during the war before moving to Donna Nook. My sister and I spent many holidays with my grandparents in South Somercotes and for some reason the coastguard tower remains an abiding image for us but we have no pictures of it. When I returned to Saltfleet a few years ago after an abscence of nearly 30 years I was struck by how the once sandy beach has changed totally and is now green!
