The Serpentine -- a lake in Hyde Park, frequently mentioned in Regency romances.

















St. George's Gate at Windsor Castle -- this figure of St. George slaying the dragon is at the top of a large archway.
















Windsor Castle -- the dry moat has been turned into a terraced garden.
















The spires of St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle -- many of the stone figures are real or mythological beasts, holding spears that serve as lightning rods.
