Fountains Abbey & Studley Royal Water Garden: The site, today property of the National Trust, is built around the ruins of a Cistercian abbey, transforming the wild a wooded valley into a spectacular water garden. There is a canal, ponds, temples, statues, lawns, deer park...
The gigantic transformation was mainly the work of its owner John Aislable and his son William in the 18th century.
The estate comprised two houses, Royal Studley House, which was destroyed in 1946 by fire, and Fountains Hall, which has been restored by the National Trust. The last private inhabitants of the Hall was Lady Doris Vyner, sister to the then-current Duke of Richmond and Gordon and her husband Commander Clare George Vyner.
The site is also a venue for weddings.
