Recommended practice is to include sufficient bibliographic detail to identify the resource as unambiguously as possible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parham_Park Description An account of the resource The ha-ha at the Parham House wraps around the main sections of the estate. It is made of stacked stone, and is about three feet high. The upper part of the ha-ha holds the manicured sections of the lawn, along with the house and other social parts of the garden. Beyond the ha-ha lies the rest of the landscape, including the overgrown parts and the cattle. This structure has more of a practical use to it, keeping the animals away from the main parts of the garden and home. This small wall acts as a barrier to keep the untouched sections of the land separate from the well cared for parts, signifying the social structure of the landowners and how they cared for their image.
