New photos show the "carpet of colour" drawing visitors to Blenheim Palace this autumn.
The UNESCO World Heritage Site near Woodstock is home to a range of wildlife, including egrets, 12 species of bat, and the largest number of ancient oak trees anywhere in Europe.
Now, the palace and its grounds, described by Sir Winston Churchill's father as the "finest view in England," have been captured in their autumn colours by Pete Seaward, a regular visitor to the estate.
Home to the Dukes of Marlborough since 1705, it houses one of the most extensive collections in Europe, which includes portraits, furniture, sculpture and tapestries.
