Temple of Music 1770 (West Wycombe Park)
The Temple of Music is on an Island in the Lake and is only accessible by boat. You would have to get permission from the Dashwood family to visit :-)
From “The Dashwoods of West Wycombe” by Sir Francis Dashwood -
“The Temple consists of a single room in the shape of a horseshoe. For dances forty couples can be squeezed into it. On the outside there is a colonnade which runs right around the back. And beneath it a series of cellars. In the middle of the floor there is a large rectangular panel which perhaps formed part of a stage which could be lowered or raised. The inventory of 1781 mentions such a stage. The Temple was used, and is still used, for summer parties; one of Daniell’s paintings of 1781 shows it full of guests, with others arriving in gondola-shaped boats.”
p.s. 1770 wasn't when I took this :-) The Temple was built in approx 1770.
