Buzza Tower is a Grade II listed structure on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly now used as a camera obscura.
The tower was built in 1821 as a windmill.[1] It was restored in 1912 as a memorial to King Edward VII when the exterior was provided with sheltered seating.[2] Between 2012 and 2014 the tower was restored and a camera obscura was installed which opened to the public in 2014.[3]
