Severndroog Castle Vicinity, London SE18
250 metres north-east of Rose Cottage, a former park-keeper's cottage near Severndroog Castle, Stoney Alley (ahead) passes the rear of some gardens that once belonged to Jackwood House. The house, now demolished, was originally called "Jack’s Wood". Its name was later changed to "Mayfield" and finally to "Jackwood House". Apparently Viscount Folkestone succeeded to the Earldom of Radnor during his tenure of Jackwood House, hence the Latin inscription on the basin of a non-functioning fountain that can be seen on the terrace behind the benches ahead, that reads: "D.D. IACOBUS COMES DE RADNOR 1873". The rose gardens on the other side of the terrace looked well tended and the surrounding area seemed well maintained in this otherwise 'wooded-and-grassed' area.

Severndroog Castle Vicinity, London SE18
A view of a surviving rose garden on the former Jackwood House estate, north east of Severndroog Castle. This garden is a 10 minute walk away from the 'castle'. The house has long been demolished but the site still contains remnants of a formal garden with high red-brick walls, a non-functioning fountain, the rose gardens visible here and terraces that open down into the surrounding woodland/s.

Severndroog Castle Vicinity, London SE18
A view - from inside a brick garden shelter - of a surviving rose garden on the former Jackwood House estate, north east of Severndroog Castle. This garden is approximately 10 mins walk away from the 'castle'. The house has long been demolished but the site still contains remnants of a formal garden with high red-brick walls, a non-functioning fountain, the rose gardens seen here and terraces that open down into the surrounding woodland/s.
The house itself, now demolished, was originally called Jack’s Wood, suffered a name change and was known later as Mayfield, and then was even later on renamed to Jackwood. It seems that Viscount Folkestone succeeded to the Earldom of Radnor during his tenure of Jackwood House, hence the Latin inscription on the basin of the fountain on the terrace is the inscription "D.D. IACOBUS COMES DE RADNOR. 1873"
