Historical Secret Is Revealed As Blenheim Palace Undergoes Restoration

Forgotten Bridge

The iconic Grand Bridge, which is part of the Blenheim estate, once offered one of the best views in England. However, over time, it was flooded, drained, and eventually forgotten. Given the historical value behind it, it was a shame to see it go to waste.

Then, in 2018, plans were made to restore and repair the waterproof deck of the 18th-century bridge to prevent further damage to the fundamental structure. They also made plans to provide a footpath to allow pedestrians to cross safely without having to go through traffic.
