Mote Park
Mote Park is the major park in Maidstone. The house was built in 1793-1801 for Lord Romney by D. A. Alexander, who was later to be the architect of Maidstone and Dartmoor Prisons. It was his only major country house and Pevsner described it as 'forbidding'. The lake was formed by damming the River Len and the house is to the north-east of the lake.
This southern part of the park often feels a little quieter than the part closest to the centre of Maidstone. This is the path from the York Road entrance. In the distance can be seen the Volunteers Pavilion. For a close up of this and more information see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3915459 The North Downs are in the far distance.
