Tudor Blockhouse

Small circular Tudor-era artillery blockhouse on the Mersea shoreline — a compact historic subject framed by seawall, mudflats and the estuary. Best at low or high tide for different foregrounds; golden hour and blue hour give dramatic side light and reflections. Accessible via public footpaths from East Mersea; parking in the village or at the nearby beach car park. Expect coastal wind and mud underfoot; weekdays and early morning mean fewer visitors.
