The Perseus and Andromeda fountain at Witley has been restored to working order. However, the original water pressure system has been replaced by a modern mechanism and during opening hours it comes to life every hour on the hour.
The east front of the house has formal gardens and a further fountain that is unfortunately no longer working. It is also based on a classical story, in this instance Flora, the Roman goddess of flowers and spring.
One of the finest pieces of architecture at Witley is the remains of the conservatory. It is Quattrocento Italian in style, with rounded arches and delicate, slender columns.
