This folly castle is actually operating as a pub these days, but at one time it was the stables to the nearby Arnos Court , which is now a hotel. The castle is also a local landmark in Bristol, with its distinctive black brickwork made from the remains of black copper, which came from the copper foundry of William Reeve; the builder and owner of Arnos Court.
