Description
When the Siege held Lucknow in times long gone by, it had been their stronghold, but for many years under the Oudh dynasty it had been used as a receptacle of stores, old tents, &c. On the south side the ground was of the same level as that on which the Muchee Bhowun was built, and was thickly covered. with native buildings, which extended up to the walls of the place itself, and overlooked completely the second and lower plateaus.
