The Cascade, Blenheim Palace, Oxfordshire.
This is the outflow from the artificial lake created by 'Capability' Brown in the 1760's. A carefully contrived placement of boulders mask the dam wall to create this natural looking feature.
It's over-shadowed by trees on its south side and faces east, so I missed the sunshine so late in the day in autumn; and at a fairly hefty £18.50 to visit the Formal Gardens I don't think I'll be back for a while.
