The art of landscape gardening. resufficient motives ; but views of distant mountains, which may be seen as well from.the highroad, are notfeatures that justify extensive lawn over a flat surface.^ Theory and Practice 155 To do away with the impression of confinement atAttingham, the park should be extended across theroad, and thus the stranger will be induced to believehe passes through and not at the extremity of the park.Secondly, some striking and interesting features shouldbe brought into notice, such as the junction of the Sev-ern and theTerne, which may be actually effected withinthe limits of the park; and particularly the great archacross the Terne, of which no adequate advantage is atpresent taken.
