Visitors will be able to climb to top of 200-year-old tower, which is oldest three-sided obelisk in the world
An outrageously tall monument paying tribute to the Duke of Wellington is now in better shape than it has ever been in its chequered 200-year history, the National Trust believes.
After a complicated £3.1m restoration of the monument, which stands 53 metres (175ft) high, visitors will be able to climb the long, winding staircase to the top again, the trust said on Friday.
