EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the ethereal glow of twilight, The Folly at Mount Edgcumbe Park stands proudly on a hilltop, overlooking the tranquil expanse of Plymouth Sound. This hauntingly beautiful ruin, a folly in its truest sense, was constructed to evoke the grandeur of ancient ruins and to provide a picturesque backdrop to the surrounding landscape. The once grand edifice, now roofless and open to the elements, casts long, dramatic shadows across the undulating terrain. The intricate stonework, weathered by time and the elements, tells a tale of history and the passage of time. The folly's crumbling walls, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate details, bear witness to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. As the sun sets, the folly is bathed in a golden light, the water of the sound reflecting the scene in a mirror-like surface. The serene waters, dotted with the masts of sailboats, add to the scenic beauty of the image. The folly, with its shadowy silhouette, stands in stark contrast to the vibrant colors of the sunset, creating a breathtakingly beautiful tableau. The Folly at Mount Edgcumbe Park, a testament to the past, continues to captivate visitors with its timeless charm and the tranquility it offers. This photograph by Anne Newell ARPS, taken from Historic England's collection, immortalizes the essence of this enchanting ruin, inviting us to imagine the stories it holds within its walls and the secrets it has kept hidden for centuries.
