The place is within botanical garden premises. Unfortunately you cannot visit this place as it is fenced. I tried to visit the area but the security guards didn't allow. However I was very disappointed seeing that there is no maintenance for this house.

Off the beaten track in the Zoological Gardens. You are probably not officially allowed to visit this beautiful, historic and overlooked building. Unfortunately the authorities show no interest in its upkeep and it is gently crumbing before your eyes. I have visited several times now and although it is not a tourist attraction, it has a magical quality and I am compelled to return and soak up the atmosphere on each of my visits to the Botanical Gardens. To my mind it is as important as any of the major tourist honey pots, yet locally nobody appears to value it. Be careful if exploring and avoid the main stairs which are now too dangerous to climb. (Use the servants staircase which is made of stone).

NIL Maintenance and waiting for it's slow death. This building was built by the first Curator of B Garden in approx 1794-95. But today it lays in ruin. It could have been a very good museum if preserved properly.
