Bowood Gardens were designed by "Capability" Brown, with sloping lawns stretching to a long tranquil lake. The two pictures above show the lake from opposite sides: Left a view over the lake towards the House, right a view from the House over the lake with the Doric Temple just right of the centre (between the two trees). |
On the left the Cascade Waterfall, flowing down from the lake through some artificial caves. On the right an interesting way to shape trees. I'm not sure if this construction has any purpose, at least it doesn't seem to lead anywhere specific. But it looks nice and is fun to walk through. |
