This is my first report so if there's anything wrong with it, please tell me :)
They're not the best or most interesting set of pics ever, and any help with what this tower might have been would be cool. the plaque said it was erected by Princess someone Campbell in the 1700's (sorry for the vagueness i have a crap memory).
Anyway on to the pictures.

No I've never noticed this tower in Oban either - going to be in Oban tomorrow too, I'll try and spot it!
 
You should have a look at McCaig's Folly, too – it sits on the hillside above the town and serves no useful purpose (apart from being something to photograph) – a true folly!
 
To be honest, i don't actually think its in Oban, i think the place was called Benderloch.
Me and my mates stayed at a holiday park type thing called Traylee Bay, you could just see the tower (which was on top of a hill) from the beach there.
Sorry i'm really crap at directions and things :eek:
