context_page_description: Orchardleigh Lake is an 11.23-hectare artificial lake in the grounds of the Orchardleigh Estate, just north of Frome, Somerset, England. It was formed by damming a tributary of the River Frome. Today, the lake is used for angling, and also birdwatching.
  There is a small island towards the western side of lake where St Mary's Church can be found. It was built in the 13th century, and underwent extensive renovation by Sir George Gilbert Scott, for the Rev. W. A. Duckworth, in 1878. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building. Its precise location is
  51°15′28.36″N 2°19′33.28″W. Weddings are often performed at the church, which has capacity for 120 guests. It is linked from the mainland via a footbridge, and a public footpath runs nearby over another bridge across the lake.
  Note that there are actually two lakes at Orchardleigh: the small lake overlooked by the island church, and a much larger one situated approximately 150 metres away through a wooded area to the East which has a stone-built boathouse.
