Tales From the Otherwood
Where Does It Lead?
This Northamptonshire tale is in regards of a very curious building called the Triangular Lodge. On the grounds of Rushton Hall, it is in fact, younger than the hall itself.
However, this also means that because of its unusual shape, it has inspired many tales all of its own!
Towards the end of the 18th Century, the 6th Viscount Cullen is showing off his inherited home to a friend of his.... until the friend finds an entryway into a mysterious tunnel in the cellar of the lodge! Who will go down and see what lies therein?
This month's chat discusses the lodge's curious origins and its connection to Catholicism and even the Gunpowder Plot!
