So my guess is that this building was built in the Veronese Renaissance style as a Government office or school for higher learning, somewhere in the UK. Now I can't wait to know the right answer.

Influence Doge's Palace in Venice?? <br />In answer to your question about ecoli in the park, it's been caused by animal waste on the ground, mainly on the south side of the park where there are copious amounts of birdlife around the ponds and also cattle that graze freely on the open fields. 10 people became poorly earlier this year but thankfully, not seriously but they had to put warnings in place and there are various 'wash your hands' points around. We live on the north side of the park and although not so serious here we have still had to take notice!
