Severndroog Castle reopens this Sunday

Severndroog Castle, a tall Georgian folly in southeast London is reopening so the public can climb to the roof again.Severndroog Castle was built in the 1780s to commemorate Commodore Sir William James who, in April 1755, attacked and destroyed the island fortress of Suvarnadurg (then rendered in English: Severndroog) of the Maratha Empire on the western coast of India, between Mumbai and Goa. James died in 1783 and the folly was built as a memorial to him by his widow, Lady James of Eltham.
