The Littlest Castle

I wonder which King and Queen lived here. Perhaps it was just a property extension all the way from England so the King and Queen might come out to Australia and still have somewhere to feel regal and fancy? Whatever it's origins, this is a mighty fine shelter, perhaps a bus stop from days gone by, a guard house at the entrance to the Zoo, or well I'm not so sure what else it might be. It is situated in Royal Park, a stone's throw from the Zoo entrance, so maybe that is the best guess. It is however somewhat unusual but on the right property, it would look incredible at the entrance. I would like to see it with a red velvet curtain, the perfect stage for a Punch & Judy show. Alas this is not to be, this week anyhow, and I suspect now all it does is sit and wait for nothing, likely no one shelters inside, no wedding photos are taken around it, no grand parties held within it. Oh well, never mind, I may have to make fancy jam sandwiches and a pot of tea there one day, dress up and have a right royal regal lunch just for fun.
