Of the fortifications at Nungumbaukam and at Pursewaukam all traces have disappeared; but of the larger ones at San Thomé and at Egmore interesting remains are still to be seen. The remains of the San Thomé Redoubt stand within the grounds of 'Leith Castle, a house that lies south of the San Thomé Cathedral.
All the Garden Houses, as well as thirty-three Square Miles of Ground, would be in security from the invasions of irregular Horse." Of the suburban fortifications the two largest were at Egmore and at San Thomé. Next in size were those at Nungumbaukam and at Pursewaukam. Of smaller works there were many.
Within later years philanthropic and enterprising Indians have done much for education, and numerous schools both for boys and for girls have been established by their efforts. An educational building of curious interest is the office of the Director of Public Instruction, in Nungumbaukam.
