I remember visiting the Rotunda as a kid with my Dad in the 1960's

Great video. I occasionally looked at the rotunda through the fence when out on a run on the Common. It looks in a sorry state. Such a shame for such a historic building. Also the link to the second video doesn't work. Says it's private.

[@Wargaming_Miscellany]

At least it is being used these days, which will mean that it gest some maintenance. The link will work once the second video is released ... which should be on Sunday.

So I heard that Congreve rockets glow red when in flight?
