The Buckingham LodgesStowe: The Park
Approaching Stowe from Buckingham, one turns north onto the Grand Avenue and, at the crest of the first hill, finds the two Buckingham Lodges, which Bevington dates from 1805.
Passing between the lodges, the visitor sees the Grand Avenue lead toward the Corinthian Arch at the top of a distant rise and, eventually, the southern façade of the House through the opening in the Arch. Wooden gates between the lodges formerly allowed the Avenue to be grazed. The lodges are presently inhabited by Stowe School staff.
