The Sir John Barrow Monument is a 30 metre tower at the top of the 133 metre Hoad Hill, at Ulverston. It commemorates Sir John Barrow (1764-1848), who was born in Ulverston and was a founding member of the Royal Geographical Society. He travelled to China and South Africa as a diplomat and held the post of Second Secretary to the Admiralty from 1804 until 1845. The monument is not a lighthouse: it has never had a functional light.

You pass this point where the canal meets the Ulverston Channel on the Cumbria Coastal Way. The view over the water is wonderful. There are benches for picnics here.
