The weather today is very windy. Will something fall down in the wind? There are many unstable buildings. There are some large buildings, known by a lot of people, but there are other small buildings that are unknown to most people. Carclew House, between Truro and Falmouth was the dwelling of the Bonython family at first. Then, in the 1730s, William Lemon, a wealthy merchant, bought it. He improved it with columns and small pavilions. But after 200 years it was destroyed by fire, not by the wind. Now it is a beautiful ruin in a beautiful private garden. A local butcher was the owner of this little ruin by the lane. He killed his animals here.
