Temple of Piety

The Temple of Piety was probably started in 1729 as a dedication to Hercules. It is a perfect example of neo-Classicism and was designed as cool garden house on the shady side of the valley. It was later re-designed as a symbol of filial piety by William Aislabie soon after his father's death in 1742.

Temple of Fame

The Temple of Fame stands on a high bluff overlooking the Water Gardens of Studley Royal. The 'stone' columns look very convincing until tapped, then one discovers that they are actually of wood.

Studley Royal Water Gardens

The Studley Royal Water Gardens created by John Aislabie in 1718 is one of the best surviving examples of a Georgian water garden in England. It was expanded by his son, William who purchased the adjacent Fountains Abbey Estate. The garden's elegant ornamental lakes, canals, temples and cascades provide a succession of dramatic eye-catching vistas.
