Scope and Content
The route book of Devon: a guide for the stranger and tourist. Exeter: Besley, 1846. p. 31.BISHOP'S PALACE. [
]. Of the beauty of the gardens and grounds around the palace, we shall let the stranger judge for himself. We shall be greatly mistaken if he is not highly pleased with the spot, not only from its retired and luxuriant beauty, but associated with the cathedral, whose angles, buttresses, and pinnacles, seen between the trees, give it a double charm. From these grounds is a favourable position for observing the south-east views of the chapter house, the lady chapel, and the south tower of the cathedral.[Text may be taken from a different source or edition than that listed as the source by Somers Cocks.]
