If there is any place where the pictures in my scrapbook fail to do justice to my memory of its beauty Wells Bishop’s Palace & Gardens is it. I also believe there have been a lot of improvements made to this attraction since my August 2005 visit. 




The first time we went to Wells to visit the Cathedral we were unaware that the Bishop’s Palace & Gardens were there just around the corner. Luckily we found out about them on made a return trip to visit both. And my husband and I need to get back to Wells England again as we have yet to catch a service and hear their choir live.

That bit of architecture looks medieval, which stirs the imagination to knights and ladies at tournaments. English gardens, even the most formal, are so beautiful and tranquil! I think I might need to go find my Sir Thomas Malory
The website says work began work on the Palace c.1206. It has a moat and drawbridge, but I doubt any of the Bishops held tournaments.
Their gardens are so lush, and colorful. Thanks for sharing.
Another lovely spot! You are surrounded by beauty.
