This is a detail from the Palladian Bridge in Prior Park, south of Bath, UK. It is one of the few remaining such bridges in the world. #details
Lovely place for a gentle walk punctuated by the smell of wild garlic: its worth noting that there is no on site parking and no roadside parking near the entrance . Although designed to feel natural its only the bridge and reflecting lakes that are photogenic
