Castle 'Ruin' at Hagley (1748). The towers at Hagley are round...and there is an exceptional view on three sides from the top of the main tower. Miller designed special gothic chairs for the interior. The stone, and the large gothic windows are reputed to have come from the ruins of Halesowen Priory, West Midlands.
