The illustration captioned "Temple of Ancient Virtue" actually shows the Temple of Concord and Victory. Which aren't the illustrations more attractively formatted than this? -- Wetman ( talk) 15:43, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Something should be said about the connection between this place and the famous Stowe manuscripts, most of which are now in the British Library. According to this the Marquess of Buckingham was responsible for collating them, although the marquess in question is not named. 86.42.71.111 ( talk) 10:52, 21 December 2008 (UTC)
FYI, some structures of Stowe Park (Temple of Concord, the Pyramid, the Palladian Bridge etc.) were "cloned" in Tsarskoye Selo and Sophia parks ( Saint Petersburg area) by Charles Cameron (architect) in 1780s. More about it in:
See it it's worth mentioning here. I will post a complete rewrite of Charles Cameron (architect) in a week or two. NVO ( talk) 01:28, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't the "major rooms" all be in separate sections? I'd suggest that this would aid both editing and reading. Martinevans123 ( talk) 22:44, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
Would this make a Good Article? It certainly seems to have enough good content. Martinevans123 ( talk) 12:11, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
Pictures of the newly reinstalled Medici lions on the south facade would be a great addition to this article. Best, / Urbourbo ( talk) 14:06, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

I think the lead image caption is too long and should be largely integrated into the text. Alternatively, it's possible that an alternative lead image might be more suitable. A recent image, such as File:Stowe House - geograph.org.uk - 837952.jpg, currently used later in the article, might be better? Why do we have three historical images, stacked like that, at the top of the article? Thanks. Martinevans123 ( talk) 12:37, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
I propose removing the tags suggesting the article (i) is too long and (ii) has too many images. While it is long (over 177,000 bytes), I would not support splitting it unless an experienced editor is prepared to spend time dividing it into (a) house and (b) garden - and I do not think that is necessary. As regards the pictures, I would support trimming it a bit but I do not think it is essential. Dormskirk ( talk) 16:38, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
Someone has unkindly replaced the geographic location - Cobham in Wiltshire, England - with a location in n Texas … FrankBurgum ( talk) 22:21, 5 April 2023 (UTC)
I didn't know that the chapel was designed by Robert Lorimer. I think it warrants a mention. Does anyone have any thoughts as to whether that would be better here, as the article focuses on the building(s), or at Stowe School, for which the chapel was built?
