The
Parkland
In the 1760's and 70's, Lancelot `Capability' Brown, the landscape
gardener, was engaged to transform the estate viewed from the manor
house. He transformed the park by creating sweeping vistas, planting
trees and laying lawns. Many of the trees planted can still be seen
today The three lakes, are Horsepond on the north side. The Canal
on the south side and largest of the three, Bigwaters.
The festival will feature one main stage and dancefloor arena, a
large mongolian yurt that houses the bar, sitting/film area with
café and tea tents. Further afield there will be chillout
1 & 2 where people can relax and look back on the commotion
and survey the whole park from the top of the hill. There will be
a cricket match on Saturday afternoon on the other side of Badby
woods and then music commencing from 7pm onwards. The party will
go on all night and on into the next day with a SUNRISE set from
PATHAAN
