More about this scene

Ancestral home of the Marquesses of Bath, and sometimes described as the first true Renaissance house in England, Longleat was built by Sir John Thynne between 1547 and 1580. He bought the land, on which an Augustinian priory had stood, for £53; the building costs were £8,016 13s 6d.

The gardens are by 'Capability' Brown. The grounds are now home to the famous Safari Park. WESTBURY, The White

The remains of the American hospital were still much in evidence then; dad would drive the car to one of the old stone ramps so that he could work underneath it! We'd walk across the park from Corsley before the reserve was built, ...see more
