Wood Stanway lies under the Cotswold escarpment and was previously an Estate Village owned by Tewkesbury Abbey for 800 years then for 500 years by the Tracy family and their descendants. The Jacobean Stanway House is a mile away from Cotswold Way Cottage, and is open to the public seasonally; the Earls of Wemyss still live there. Thanks to its location, at the foot of the Cotswold escarpment, Stanway has been protected from many changes of the 20th century. It has seen the gradual restoration of the 18th century watergarden, probably designed by the greatest of British landscape gardeners, Charles Bridgeman. The formal Canal, on a terrace above the house, the striking Pyramid and eight ponds have been reinstated, and a single-jet fountain, at 300 feet the highest fountain in Britain and the highest gravity fountain in the world, has been added.
