I trudged up a steep hill (one of many in Bath) to get to Prior Park Landscape Garden. The garden was created by Ralph Allen in the 1700s. Ralph Allen changed the postal service in 1720 and made a fortune. The garden was neglected for a little over 200 years until the National Trust restored it. Some of things I saw were the Grotto, the Gothic Temple site, the Palladian Bridge, and the Mansion. The mansion and bridge both use Greek and Roman architecture. Near the bridge there was a beautiful swan family and ducks. After I finished exploring, I went to the Tea Shed and got a toffee ice cream, which came from a local farm just outside Bath. It gave me enough energy to make it back home.
