Eastwell Park: the old church and the lake, 1895. 'Passing to a clump of trees beyond a tiny bay in the lakeside, one notices the curious sharp smell that, in the open country, tells of near dwellings of man; for here, seen from the lake but hidden from the land, are the ancient Eastwell church and the couple of cottages in which its guardians live. Set in its graveyard in the wood, the church is very beautiful; a wide sturdy building, divided into two parts, with grey walls and red roofs, and a square tower above.' Eastwell Park, near Ashford in Kent, in England, was owned by the Earls of Winchilsea for more than three centuries. It was used as a royal residence from 1874 to 1893 for Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
