Burradon Tower, Tower house in Burradon, North Tyneside, England.

The three-story square tower structure features stone walls and incorporates defensive elements typical of 16th-century architecture in northern England.

Bertram Anderson constructed the tower in 1553, following his uncle John Orde's acquisition of the Manor of Burradon, valued at 20 shillings in 1441.

The tower's fireplace, dated 1633 with initials 'LO', represents the period when the Ogle family made improvements to the structure.

The monument stands on the grounds of Burradon Farm, accessible through designated pathways that lead visitors to the historical structure.

The tower's incorporation into a 19th-century farm building demonstrates the adaptation of medieval structures for agricultural purposes.
