The Grand Bridge at Blenheim Park has inspired visitors for generations. I loved capturing its peaceful reflections beneath a sky full of drifting clouds.

Two men are jailed over gold toilet theft from Blenheim Palace.

Two men have received jail sentences for their roles in the 2019 theft of an 18-karat gold toilet from the mansion.

The €5.5 million artwork, which satirised consumerism, was once offered on loan to Donald Trump.

Thousands of visitors come each year to visit Blenheim Palace and the valuable art and furniture that it houses.

Four years in jail for stealing a golden toilet from Churchills old home?

I thought we had a Prison Crisis?

Is a rapist being let out early for this?

And owning a gold toilet says a lot about a man, none of it good...

I wonder how long Michelle Mone will get in prison for stealing all that money from us?

A golden toilet called "America" is fucking art and needs to be seen by as many as possible.

Perhaps these thieves were working to order, for a certain Rapist President?

Another heist foiled by poor Opsec.

In typical aristocratic arsehole style, the Duchess of Marlborough (who had wanted Wren to design it) hated #SirJohnVanbrugh so much that he never actually got to see #BlenheimPalace, his most famous work, when it was completed in 1722. She even banned his wife from seeing it!
