Stourhead: Stone Bridge and the shaded grotto

Stourhead: Stone Bridge and the shaded grotto is shown and named in a reusable Geograph picture. The saved point is the picture's recorded map point.

Stourhead's shaded grotto was artificially formed as part of the 18th-century landscaped garden design, incorporating natural limestone features. The area around Stone Bridge has historical associations with the Walpole family, who created the park as a grand estate.
