		John Aislabie's development of the water gardens at Studley Royal from 1718 onwards simplified access to the ruins.
		Aislabie's workmen levelled this rubble in the church, cloister, refectory and cellarium, to create surfaces which could then be turfed, much to Gilpin s disgust.
		The same error was made by nineteenth-century writers describing it and the gazebo/gallery which Aislabie erected under the east window of the abbey church, giving opposing views of the nave and gardens, as monastic.

		Studley Royal Water Garden was the breathtaking vision of John Aislabie and his son William.
		The eminently talented Aislabie wasn't a man to ask for professional advice but he does appear to have turned to the distinguished Palladian architect, Colen Campbell, on the design of the Banqueting House.
		John Aislabie was probably thinking of his own herculean labours when he dedicated this temple, one of the last features of his water garden, to Hercules.

	Studley Royal Gardens, North Yorkshire - Picture - ninemsn Encarta
		Set in the steep-sided valley of the River Skell near Ripon, and providing a glorious approach to Fountains Abbey, is one of the most breathtaking of England's 18th-century gardens—and probably its most beautiful water gardens.
		The oldest part of the gardens at Studley Royal was laid out in the 1720s for John Aislabie, Chancellor of the Exchequer in Sir Robert Walpole's government, who was notorious for his participation in the South Sea Bubble scandal.
		Further up the valley, and leading into the grounds of Fountains Abbey, is the garden laid out for Aislabie's son in accordance with later, more "naturalistic" conventions of landscape gardening, with great numbers of mature trees and a large lake.

		John (Ripon's MP) was Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1718 at the time of the South Sea Bubble.
		In John Humphries' 1800 map of Ripon the house is shown as a traditional '4 square' Georgian townhouse.

	Studley Royal and Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire, England (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Created between 1716 and 1781 by John Aislabie and his son William, its setting was the wooded valley of the twisting river Skell and its inspiration the dramatic ruins of the great Cistercian monastery of Fountains Abbey.
		Laid out in the sheltered flat bottom of the narrow valley, the garden merged at one end into a lake and fine deer park and at the other culminated in a view of the romantic remains of the great abbey.
		Its design of still water, lawns, temples and sculptures against a dark background of trees is the perfect fusion between a wild landscape and the carefully crafted planning of the 18th century landscape.

		Even though his equipment would ordinarily be too flimsy for such a big fish, Aislabie struggles to land it thoughout most of the story, until he slips and hits his head against the stone at the bottom of the pool, but he manages to grab the fish as he falls.
		An aisling is an Irish word for a vision, and a lullaby, of course, is a song to lull children to sleep: both words suggest the sort of dream/fantasy/vision of catching the fish.
