Seven Bridges Valley

Highlight (Segment) • River

Seven Bridges Valley follows the River Skell from Studley Lake upstream towards Ripon. Not all the bridges still span the river as high levels of silt have slowed, blocked and changed the flow over the years. There is a project set up to remediate and return the river to a healthier state.

Lake at Studley Royal Water Garden

Highlight • Natural Monument

Studley Royal Park, including the ruins of Fountains Abbey, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in North Yorkshire, England. It features a beautifully preserved 18th-century water garden, designed by John Aislabie, alongside the dramatic ruins of Fountains Abbey, which was one of the wealthiest monasteries in medieval England before its dissolution by Henry VIII.

The park is known for its scenic landscapes, ornamental lakes, canals, and classical follies, making it one of the finest examples of an English Georgian water garden. It is also home to a medieval deer park, where herds of red, fallow, and sika deer roam freely.

Studley Royal Water Garden

Highlight • Monument

The Studley Royal Water Garden is a beautiful park landscape with the Moon Ponds, some lovely walkways and decorative buildings such as the Octagonal Tower with the serpentine tunnel underneath, the Monopteros, the Surprise View and Anne Boleyn's Seat. The Temple of Piety at the Moon Ponds is also very beautiful. It is a lovely place to linger and enjoy the park.
