Flounders' Folly is a tower, built in 1838, on Callow Hill, near Craven Arms at the western end of Wenlock Edge in Shropshire, England. The tower is approximately 80 feet (24 m) tall and 16 feet (4.9 m) square and is clearly visible (on the skyline) from the Cardiff–Crewe railway line, just north of Craven Arms and also from the busy A49 Shrewsbury to Hereford road. Many walks ascend the hill from various points and it is mentioned in many walking guides to Shropshire.
