Yorkshire Sculpture Park Grotto / Hermitage

Picture
Location: Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Bretton

Website: http://www.ysp.co.uk/

Age: Late 18th Century

Brief History: Designed by Architect William Lindley - there is a trace of shells inside. Wealthy British landowners would often employ a hermit to live in one of these. 

Date for Folly for Folly: This is an "online folly", so sometime before the end of the project.

What?: This folly will explore links between glass and photography...I don't want to say too much, but...I'm hoping that there will be a hermit before I'm done.
