Ripon‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 호수

Lumley Moor는 단순히 물을 저장하는 것이 아니라 방류하기 위해 건설되었습니다. 빅토리아 시대의 수도 공사는 종종 자연 하천의 흐름을 감소시켰습니다. Ripon과 같은 도시들이 고지대 개울에서 물을 끌어다 쓰기 시작하면서 여름철 유량을 낮추고 하류의 제방에 영향을 미치며 물고기를 죽이고 강변의 권리를 침해할 위험이 있었습니다(빅토리아 시대에 큰 법적 문제였습니다). 따라서 수자원 당국은 취수한 물을 보상하기 위해 법적으로 강에 물을 다시 방류해야 했습니다. Gouthwaite Reservoir와 같지만 훨씬 작은 규모인 이 저수지는 보상 저수지의 한 유형입니다.

Wow, what a place! Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal Gardens completely blew me away. The abbey ruins are absolutely stunning – huge, dramatic, and full of atmosphere. You can just wander around and lose yourself in the history. The water gardens are gorgeous too –beautifully designed lakes, with statues, little follies, and surprise viewpoints. Catching a glimpse of the abbey from across the water is like something out of a painting. We also spotted deer in the park which was a bit of a treat! Loads of walking routes to choose from, so you can do a quick wander or spend the whole day exploring. There’s also two good on-site cafes, one at the visitor centre, and one lakeside venue. There are also plenty of picnic spots if you bring your own. The whole place is spotless and really well looked after. This was one of the best days out I’ve had in ages – peaceful, scenic, and full of history. It is also a World Heritage Site to boot, so you are in for a treat!

A television series (in German) that I wholeheartedly recommend introduces culture-loving viewers to remarkable testimonies to human creativity from many countries around the world. What they all have in common is that they have been granted "World Heritage" status by UNESCO. * "A park, gnarled trees, twisted by the wind as if by a giant's hand. Herds of fallow deer and roe deer graze in the tall grass. In the valley, nature is reflected in an artificial lake: the visitor stands in Lord Aislabie's "Watergarden." Small Greek temples and Gothic turrets are also reflected in the water, for in the 18th century it was fashionable to decorate the parks of noble country estates with Greek temples and Gothic turrets – real ruins were highly prized. And the lord owned a truly magnificent ruin in his park. Walking along well-kept park paths by the stream that flows through the artificial lakes, one's gaze falls on "Fountains Abbey," or what remains of what was once the largest English Cistercian monastery in Yorkshire, an impressive ruin." reads the media library's website.

Studley Royal Park 800 acres, including an 18th Century landscaped garden, the ruins of Fountains Abbey, Fountains Hall Jacobean mansion and St Mary’s Church

Beautiful reflections and views.

Grewelthorpe is around 3 miles South of Masham and 6 miles North of Ripon. It hosts an ancient 12th-century church and the nearby Hackfall Woods

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.

The small dam was originally built for the city of Ripon. These days, it belongs to Yorkshire Water. Paths go essentially around all of it, making for a very pleasant walk.
