Woollett's Bridge - a photo on Flickriver

Woollett's Bridge

Painshill pleasure gardens were created between 1738 and 1773, by the Hon. Charles Hamilton. After his Grand Tour, he returned with a collection of statues, and acquired the land at Painshill in which to display them. His vision was to create “living paintings”. In 1773, Hamilton was forced to sell Painshill, following years of financial difficulties and debt. Although the landscape changed during the different owners, it remained largely intact until after WWII, when it felt into disrepair. In 1981 Painshill Park Trust was formed to restore the garden back to Hamilton’s original vision.

A manmade 14 acre serpentine lake is crossed by several bridges to allow a circular route round the gardens. The Woollett Bridge has recently been restored in steel, and leads off Grotto Island. Woollett was an engraver who created a picture of it in 1760.
