EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic south front of Castle Hill, a true gem among "100 Favourite Houses". Captured by an English photographer in the 20th century, this image transports us to the grandeur of a bygone era. Built between 1729 and 1740 by Roger Morris for Hugh Fortescue, Castle Hill stands as a testament to architectural brilliance. Although tragedy struck in 1934 when the central part of the house was ravaged by fire, it was skillfully rebuilt under the watchful eye of the 5th Earl Fortescue. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this country estate with its meticulously landscaped gardens and expansive grounds. The Georgian and Palladian architecture exudes elegance and sophistication, while the cupola atop adds a touch of regality. As we gaze upon this stately home nestled within its park-like setting, we can't help but be transported back in time. The photograph invites us to imagine walking through those grand doors into rooms filled with history and stories waiting to be discovered. With every detail expertly captured through photography, this image from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of Castle Hill but also serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed, these architectural marvels continue to inspire awe and admiration.
