MenuRievaulx Terrace, Yorkshire
Rievaulx Terrace is a mid 18th-century formal grass-covered terrace across the side of a wooded escarpment overlooking the ruins of Rievaulx Abbey, Yorkshire, in the North Riding. The site was created in 1758 by Thomas Duncombe III. His desire was to complement the more formal terrace and temples laid out in about 1730 by his father at nearby Duncombe Park. At either end of the terrace stand two mid-18th century follies: small Palladian temples. The site is within the council area of North Yorkshire.
