		Given Louis' taste for grandeur at Versailles, the residence at Marly was surprisingly small; remains of the foundations can be seen on the terrace above the large pool in the park.
		The main feature was water, pumped up from the Seine by the innovative Marly water-machine and brought by aqueduct up to the hill behind, from where it sourced the pools and fountains of Marly as well as running south to feed the fountains at Versailles.
		Copies of two of the sculptor Coustou's large rearing horse sculptures (known as the Marly horses) do adorn their original position (at the north end, by the abreuvoir); the originals are on display in the Marly courtyard in the Louvre museum along with some of the other retrieved statues.
