Sir Thomas Tresham's Intriguing Tudor Triangular Lodge - Rushton (Northants. UK)

Thomas Tresham's 16th century 'Triangular Lodge' is intriguing ~ quite simply because it is, indeed, triangular. There are not too many three-sided buildings around! But there is more to it than that. Triangles permeate the building ~ equilateral triangles, that is. It is symbolic of Sir Thomas's religious beliefs. Tresham was a very devout Christian ~ and, specifically, a Roman Catholic Christian.
