I don't know this area well so any Advice would be great where to go ? ill be coming from Broad street side,

A tower supposedly the inspiration for one of the towers in Tolkien's The Two Towers.

And the other tower is nearby too.

That's a fair number. Have you seen this, there's a helpful map. Seems to be a good selection along Calthorpe Road.

There are a few posts here already dealing with Perrotts Tower. In fact one well known Member uses it as his avatar.
