Vernon's Folly, Sudbury, April 2011

Not a lot I can tell you about this but no doubt the surfing buffs among us could find out a bit more
In 1723 Lord George Vernon the owner of Sudbury hall built this fortress like structure to keep his deer in, it has been named Vernon's Folly it is situated in a field just off the A50 at Sudbury on the opposite side of the road to the hall.

Thanks for looking.

That's really nice. A shame for the poor deer, though.
Fab find.
