William Kent also added a cascade ( a symbolic grotto ), inspired by the upper cascade of the gardens of the Villa Aldobrandini.
Kent's garden also featured a flower garden, an orchard, an aviary ( which included an owl ) and a symmetrical planned arrangement of trees known as the " Grove ".
To the side of the Grove was a patte d ' oie, or ' Goosefoot ', three avenues which terminated by buildings including the ' Bagnio ' ( or Casino, designed by Lord Burlington and Colen Campbell ) in 1716, the ' Pagan Temple ' ( designed by the Catholic Baroque architect James Gibbs ) and the Rustic House ( designed by Lord Burlington ).
