PENNYCUICK
Many of the farmer families of the Theni and Madurai districts still keep portraits of Pennycuick and worship him as a God. Villagers prostrate before his image, offer prayers, decorate with garlands and perform aarati to his photo which are usually kept in the hall or puja room along with idols of other deities.

PENNYCUICK MUSEUM
Colonel John Pennycuick CSI was a British Army engineer and civil servant who served as a member of Madras Legislative Council when parts of the Indian subcontinent were under Colonial rule of the British East India Company.
He designed and built the mighty Malliperiar dam and deserves this fitting museum at Lowercamp in Tamil Nadu as building the dam was no easy task.
Construction was slow battling against the jungle animals, biting insects and relentless rain. After a bad flood and the government putting the squeeze on the budget he traveled to England and sold his property along with Mrs Pennycuick's jewels and raised the money to finish the project that was completed in 1895.
