Elvaston Castle
 

These gate lodges would once have controlled the access to the castle grounds but are now used as private dwellings. The grounds are very popular with horse riders and this structure is presumably used to help mounting and dismounting but provides a handy vantage point for small dogs!

 

This fine avenue is one of the quieter parts of the park and gives extensive views towards the formal garden area in the distance - behind the Golden Gates.
