Dear Mr Cornwell, I’m a HUGE fan of the Sharpe series. I recently went to Seringapatam/Srirangapatna, with a copy of Sharpe’s Tiger, having also viewed the picture gallery on your website. You’ve mentioned that “Colonel Bailey’s Dungeon” was actually a magazine. So where were the dungeons? The guides there say that the stone protrusions from the walls were used to chain prisoners, and I took pictures of myself posing how I imagined Lawford and Sharpe were once chained. Could you please clarify the actual location of the Tipu’s dungeons? Also, there’s an obelisk, with names of those that died in battle. Near this, there is a small… storage area or tunnel? I couldn’t explore the “tunnel” as it was filthy and I saw a snake. What is this area? Is that the Bangalore gate? Also, you mention watch towers (16) in the book. Are these the ruined grooves on the way to the obelisk? I counted 18. I’ve seen three breaches, two of which appear facing the bridge, as in your photograph. Am not sure which breach is the right one, but I took pictures of myself on both, screaming “It’s lieutenant Graham now,” hoping I got at least one right. Hope to hear from you, so at least I can get the places right on my next visit. Best regards, and hope there’s another Sharpe book soon, Renu, Kerala, India.
