The Folly is the old shed next to the Pirates' house. Work to transform the shed into an artist's studio began in 1979. When the father of one of the owners heard about the construction plans he called out in horror: But it's a folly! Hence the name. Over the years many people worked on the building. Each with his/her own vision. In the beginning of 2012 money was raised to finally turn the Folly from a decorative ruin into something where people could actually work. The biggest challenge proved to make a whole out of the many separate facets and stay faithful to the original visions.
