Dist:0.2km<br/>What is visible through the screen of trees is the upper part of the western facade, brick and early C18. Below this is a one-storey screen added about 1820 by Charles Robert Cockerell, as part of a distinctive classical remodelling of the building. A detailed description is at http://www.discovershropshire.org.uk/html/search/verb/GetRecord/CCS:MSA5539 .Seen from close to the position where [[1122090]] was taken.

Dist:0.2km<br/>This narrow sector of the park between the drive (left) to Oakly Park house, and the bridleway drive through the park to Priors Halton, widens as the two diverge. The point where the two meet can be seen in front of the lodge in [[1121880]].

Dist:0.2km<br/>Taken as the bridleway / drive across Oakly Park between Priors Halton and Bromfield approaches the end of Pheasantry Covert on the left, with a dead tree (above the centre of the gates) in the middle of the field seen in the foreground of [[1122090]].

Dist:0.3km<br/>The woodland at the north end of Oakly Park next to the River Teme looks from here like a veritable arboretum of different trees. Paths weave around it, but alas there is no public access.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The bridleway between Bromfield and Priors Halton allows fleeting glimpses of the house itself, such as [[1122108]].
