Severndroog Castle

An 18-metre high triangular folly, built in 1784 by the wife of Sir William James, in memory of her husband's capture of the fortress of Severndroog on the Malabar Coast.
The Severndroog Campaign Group is battling for funding to restore the building and open it to the public. Learn about the history of the castle and find out how you can support the campaign on the Severndroog Campaign Group website.
