My request is below in the spoilers, but I just wanted to say that I don’t really want a hit per se; actually, I’d appreciate the least “hinty” response possible. The problem is that I don’t know what I’m looking at so I’d appreciate some kind of clarification, maybe an example of the same thing in other words, or even a link to an image, for example.
I’m at the Dark Passage, wearing the mask, and I see a “sandstone recess”. There is no further description, and it can’t contain things, so I’m a bit confused as to what exactly I’m looking at (probably because I’m not a native English speaker).
Great, thanks! While we’re at it, should I be thinking of something specific for the miniature Folly? By looking up that word/concept, it seems to be quite a generic word.
“Folly” is used here in the “decorative architecture” sense: European nobility used to love having small buildings constructed on their estates for purely decorative purposes. This one is some useless but aesthetic construction project Capability Meldrew had built out in the garden, which didn’t last long before it came crashing down.
I don’t remember how much is described about this particular Folly’s appearance but this image from the Wikipedia page seems fitting.
I have always thought that the Meldrew responsible for the poorly built folly should have been nomenclatured “Incapability” Meldrew on account of his lack of artisanal skill. Naturally with deference to the real-life “Capability” Brown.
He is another example of the Meldrews’ collective lack of achievement down the ages.
