Hi Sarah, wow, such praise thank you very much, the value of lakes is very important in formal gardens or country park gardens and there is plenty of warer available at Sheffield Park.
Thanks again for your lovely appraisal and good wishes.
These autumn colours are just amazing, dear Nick. I seem to remember this photo from Pan. I believe that the gardens were first designed by Capability Brown. A genius when it comes to choice of trees and where to have the lake.

Stourhead was my introduction to appreciating the skills of Caapability Brown. I believe however that he did a better job of planing the planting trees of contrasting colours at Sheffield Park. The main lake at Stourhead remains by favourite in terms of landscaping. xx
