[edit] Height?

The Encyclopedia of Melbourne states that the height of the Clifton Hill tower is 160 metres, yet this article claims 80 metres. Cnwb 23:42, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

Heritage Victoria's website lists the height as 160 feet -- just under 50 metres. Whoever wrote The Encyclopedia of Melbourne entry has most likely made a mistake in transcribing this figure. If you go to look at the shot tower, it's clearly not 160 meters tall. 50 metres seems more in keeping with the height of other shot towers.
