' The final outdoor cage of Lord George Sanger's menagerie built in 1874 / 1882. This structure still exists, now stabilised and grade II listed. It formed part of the western perimeter wall and separated the LCDR railway embankment from the menagerie pleasure gardens. Next to the castellated cage there was a more formal box cage attached on the side, this remained in existence through the early 1980s however now only the foundation base remains. In 1990 the Bembom Brothers began much demolition and clearance of the original railway and perimeter embankments within the west area of the Dreamland site. Another castellated cage between the second folly (demolished) and the remaining 3 castellated cages was also removed at some point. The heightened section of the perimeter wall that it fronted remains as evidence, this is also true of another section further north of the site where the third outdoor cage would have been next to the first folly structure.
