A close-up view of Thorpe Park’s Model World in the early 1980s, focusing on one of the miniature classical buildings with its stepped roof lined by tiny lions and a horse-drawn chariot mounted at the summit. Beyond it can be seen other model structures, including a pyramid and a dark obelisk-like monument, set within the carefully landscaped gardens that formed one of Thorpe Park’s original attractions. The shallow focus gives the scene an almost dreamlike quality, but the craftsmanship of the miniature display still comes through clearly, from the colonnaded frontage to the ornamental roof details. It is a fine record of the park’s quieter early years, when model architecture and formal garden displays played a central part in the visitor experience.
