Happy Valley
26.1.67
II
Grotto. C18. A long vaulted gallery cut in and built of chalk under
a slope at the head of the valley, the outer face having a series of
6 arches. At each side of the grotto are flanking brick and flint
structures originally representing 'Grecian ruins' now much more
ruinous, reputed to be designed by James Stuart. The Grotto was
approached by a tunnel from a point approximately 120 metres to the
north, but the entrance to this has now mostly collapsed. Formerly
part of Park Place estate. V.C.H. Vol.III p.163. B.O.E. Berkshire p.193
