Rushton Triangular Lodge
📍 Northamptonshire, England
About
The Triangular Lodge is a folly, designed by Sir Thomas Tresham and constructed between 1593 and 1597 near Rushton, Northamptonshire, England. It is now in the care of English Heritage. The stone used for the construction was alternating bands of dark and light limestone.
Built 1593-97 by Sir Thomas Tresham after spending 15 years imprisoned for his Catholic faith. Every element is designed around the number three: three sides, three floors, three windows on each face, trefoil decorations — all symbolising the Holy Trinity. Tresham's son Francis was later involved in the Gunpowder Plot. Managed by English Heritage.
