Legendary past
Lal Srinivas and Mirando Obesekara described Sigiriya as a post-historical archeology turning point of Ravana.

Richmond Castle is a two-storey building with sixteen rooms, 99 doors and 34 windows.All essential supplies for the building were sourced from abroad, including floor titles from Italy, teak from Burma (used to construct the main staircase), window panes, decorated with glass depicting grape vines, from Scotland, and an iron stair and bathroom fittings from England. Srirwardena moved into Richmond Castle upon his marriage to Clarice Matilda Maude Suriyabandara on 1910.The marriage took place in St. Mary's Church, Kalamulla.

The couple spent 32 years together however they were unable to have children. Srirwenda bequeathed his properties to the Public Trustee, with the request that the castle was converted to a children’s home. Srirwardena died on 8 July 1947 and from 1956 the Richmond Castle has been taken care by the Public Trustee Department of Sri Lanka.
