So imagine my surprise as I was driving down Blacklidge just west of Campbell and saw this castle! I asked a girl walking her dog if she knew anything about the castle and she said that she thought it was occupied by a family. Anyone know anything more about this interesting residence? I guess the "drawbridge" gate is the garage door. No moat, though.

A bit of England in Tucson ~ royal weirdness!

This is completely bizarre and cool. This is on Blacklidge?? I must take a look....I've been here years and have never seen that place....well Tucson is a big place:) Wouldn't you love to see what it looks like inside?
ReplyDeleteIf you find out anything about it, let me know! And if you take any photos, I'm happy to post them. I couldn't get a good angle to capture the tower.
ReplyDeleteI live right down the street from this place. I'm not sure, but I think it is occupied by a war veteran.
