Montes Cotswold / Reino Unido

Los montes Cotswold o Cotswolds son una serie de colinas en la zona sudoeste y oeste de Inglaterra, abarcan un área de unos 40 km x 145 km. La zona ha sido denominada como "La zona Cotswold de Belleza Natural Sobresaliente" . Su punto más elevado es la colina Cleeve que mide 330 m,[1]​ a unos 4 km al norte de Cheltenham. Los Cotswolds se encuentran dentro de los denominados ceremonial counties de Gloucestershire y Oxfordshire, pero se extienden hacia partes de Wiltshire, Somerset, Worcestershire, y Warwickshire. Las colinas dan su nombre al distrito del gobierno local en Gloucestershire, que administra gran parte de esta zona. El área está definida por la roca madre de la piedra caliza jurásica que crea un tipo de hábitat de pastizales poco común en el Reino Unido y que se extrae de la piedra Cotswold de color dorado.

The site is owned by the National Trust and the former grandstand is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building. It is England's only surviving 17th-century deer course and grandstand.In the 19th century Lodge Park was modified into a house, then a row of cottages, and then into a house again. It was bequeathed to the National Trust in 1982, and restored to its original form as a grandstand. Lodge Park is open to the public at advertised times, and the footpaths in the Sherborne Estate are available to the public at all times.
