Description
White Nancy is a folly or summerhouse built in 1817 for John Gaskell junior of North End Farm. It is constructed from white-washed and rendered sandstone rubble and has a circular plan with a distinctive sugar loaf shape, topped with a ball finial at the apex. The interior features a now blocked entrance that led into a single room, which includes stone benches around the edge and a circular stone table in the middle. This structure was erected to commemorate the Battle of Waterloo, and part of it is located in Rainow parish.
