The famous wooden Chinese Bridge and the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Croome Park, Worcestershire, England. Installed in 2015, the Chinese Bridge is an exact replica of the original wooden bridge that was designed by William Halfpenny for the 6th Earl of Coventry who lived at Croome Court. The first bridge was built in the 1740s but disappeared only 100 years later due to rot and decay. The Church of St Mary Magdalene was designed by Lancelot “Capability” Brown with the interior designed by Robert Adam. It was consecrated and dedicated to St Mary Magdalene in 1763. It has not been used as a church since the early 1970s after which it was taken over by the Churches Conservation Trust.
