Description
The fountain in front of the Orangery at Longleat House is an early 19th-century structure made of limestone. It features a circular pond with a moulded stone verge surrounding a shallow bowl that is lined with cobbles and tiles. At the center, there is a fountain in a scalloped bowl on a pedestal, which is surrounded by three cupids. The sculptor of the fountain is unknown. This fountain is part of a formal garden in front of the orangery, and the four urns nearby were included in a redesigned garden plan by Russell Page in the 1940s.
