Found this picture amongst those for Cheddar Gorge, but have a feeling it could be the gardens in Aston Park. There is a statue and a block of flats that may help...

Could be almost anywhere that there are flower borders, Pedro, but you can be pretty sure it ain't Cheddar Gorge! :) That bank on the right with the white statue is probably your only chance of identifying it, if, of course, it is still there.

Maurice :cool:
 
I think the urns at Aston Hall were once white. Actually looking again I think that’s William Bloye’s Pan statue at Aston Hall ! The one that lost its head. Viv.

Much of it obscured now by tree growth. Don’t think you can see Aston church spire now either (#10). Interesting that the church is much lower than Aston Hall. Gives a better impression of the Hall being on a hill with good views all across the area. Well at least way back in time. Viv.
