SCANDAL-hit Prince Charles will be hoping for quieter times in Worcestershire, where he can indulge in his passion for fine architecture.
On Monday, Charles will officially switch on the spectacular fountain at English Heritage's Witley Court.
Staff feel sure he will be impressed by the 19th Century architecture of English Heritage's Perseus and Andromeda fountain and the village's Church of St Michael and All Angels.
"The fountain and gardens are fantastic. There's a lot of hard work gone into restoring it to its former glory," said a spokeswoman for English Heritage.
"I'm sure the Prince will agree it's spectacular."
Prince Charles will be following in the footsteps of Edward VII, the then Prince of Wales, who visited the fountain in its heyday.
Built in the 1860s, with its main 90ft water jet and dozens of smaller ones, it was dubbed England's answer to the Trevi fountain in Rome and the fountains of Versailles.
The sculpted fountain fell into disrepair in the 1930s and it took a £725,500 grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund to restore the site to its former glory in April.
