Another visit to Blenheim Palace and this time we decided to walk around the lake
It was a bright, sunny day
and we walked along this path
lots of small clusters of trees like this one
as well as some beautifully shaped ones.
The lake shimmered in the sunlight
a cottage, which on closer inspection looked quite run down
a mass of exposed roots
looking closer
as we walked up the hill we had a panoramic view of the lake, the house and the bridge
the bridge was designed by Capability Brown
We then walked into Woodstock village looking for somewhere to have lunch.
It's very picturesque
with its own distinctive architecture
It's a Georgian village and it contains many attractive period buildings
lots of pubs and places to eat
It was very quiet as it was Sunday.
Beautifully proportioned
and the brickwork glowed in the sunlight.
Nice.
