    The museum’s small plaque near the staircase explains that the original colonial roof was made from slate shipped from England, and that the Khandi people were hired to cut and lay the tiles. If you’re hiking to Putudi Waterfall, you can spot a second plaque that sketches the original tea and coffee planting grid the British tried to impose, and how the tribe modified the spacing for better shade. Have you seen the interpretive board at the Coffee Garden that outlines that same grid layout?
