The ha-ha separates the deer park from the front lawn. A ha-ha is a dry ditch with a fence, wall or hedge running along its bottom, forming the boundary to a garden or park. It is designed so as not to interrupt the view, and to be invisible until closely approached. The originator of the ha-ha is believed to be the English garden designer Charles Bridgeman (1690-1738).
