The Royal Park of Studley and the Ruins of Fountain Abbey - Cultivated Wilderness, Great Britain (197/418)

A striking landscape was created around the ruins of the Cistercian abbey of Fountains and Fountains Hall Castle, in Yorkshire. The landscaping, the gardens and canal dating from the 18th century, the plantations and vistas from the 19th century and the neo-Gothic castle of Studley Royal Park make this a site of exceptional value.
