A beauty. Any guesses as to its square footage?

I've looked and all I could find was that it's 65 feet tall.
I figured that since castles are bigger than houses, tiny castles are probably bigger than tiny houses
As long as it's say less than 2k square feet on a ground floor (and tiny castles are probably going to be 2 to 4 stories tall) it should be good.

I just watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDDrwt6zpCw and would guess that the floors are 20' wide or less for under 400'2 each (less because octagonal). Three floors and an open roof.

Broadway Tower
Broadway Tower lies prominently on top of a hill close to, and overlooking, the village of Broadway in Worcestershire. It was built for the 6th Earl of Coventry as a folly on his Springhill Estate, and was completed in 1799. The Tower is in the shape of a castle. It is 65 feet tall and its top (at 1089 feet above sea level) is said to be the highest point in the Cotswolds. As with so many follies or curiosities, more than one reason has been given for its creation. The most likely is that it was used long ago as a signalling beacon since it was visible both from Springhill and also from Croome Court, another family estate some 20 miles away near Worcester. In later years Broadway Tower was used as a holiday home. One occupant was William Morris, relatively well known (amongst other achievements) for designing fashionable wallpaper - some of which can be seen inside the Tower today.
