Description
A little known folly in the Cumbrian hamlet of Stennerskeugh. It is in the grounds of Hwith House which was built by John Hewetson in 1868 and demolished in 1927. A modern house now stands in its place. The house got its unusual name from the first letter of the christian names of Hewetson's five sons. The folly is behind a high stone wall opposite an entrance to the garden, facing the road. Grid ref 74200140.
Folly Gates, Brookmans Park, N Mimms, Hertfordshire. The arch now stands at the junction of Swanley Bar and Hawkshead Road at the southern end of Brookmans Park/Gobions Estate. Even at close range large, well established, trees make it only visible from almost directly in front. There is no access into the estate and many more trees mean the arch is no longer visible from the village.
