Wikipedia describes a folly as ” In architecture, a folly is a building constructed primarily for decoration, but suggesting through its appearance some other purpose, or of such extravagant appearance that it transcends the range of garden ornaments usually associated with the class of buildings to which it belongs. “
In the UK we love a folly be it a tower or a something with a giant Pineapple on its roof, anyway our sheddies also love a folly and have built their own amazing getaways in their gardens – here are some examples
