U.K., The Cascade.

Another postcard from Tony in England (: It shows The Cascade and Cascade House in Chatsworth, Derbyshire. The Cascade is a set of stone steps over which water flows from a set of fountains at the top. It was built in 1696 and rebuilt on a grander scale in 1701. In 1703 a grand baroque Temple or Cascade House was added at the top. It has 24 cut steps, each slightly different and with a variety of textures so that each gives a different sound when water runs over and down them. Got it on July 13th too.
