The Italian Garden, Belton House, Lincolnshire

Little has survived of the spectacular 17th century baroque garden created by London and Wise for Sir John Brownlow after it was devastated by flooding in mid 18th century. We have, to a large extent, the 1st Earl Brownlow to thank for what we see today. In the early 19th century he commissioned Jeffry Wyatville to design the magnificent sunken Italian Garden, fountain and Orangery which we see today.
