1. Dunster Castle, Somerset: A Glimpse into the Past of John Fowles Luttrell's Seat Dunster Castle, nestled in the picturesque village of Dunster in Somerset, England, is a captivating blend of history and beauty. This magnificent structure, which has served as the seat of the Luttrell family since the 14th century, is a testament to the rich heritage of the region and the aristocracy that once ruled its lands. The castle's origins can be traced back to the 11th century when it was built as a motte and bailey fortification by William de Mohun. Over the centuries, it evolved into a grand country house, with additions and renovations made by various noble families, including the Luttrells. In this handcoloured copperplate engraving from Rudolph Ackermann's Repository of Arts, published in London in 1825, we get a glimpse into the grandeur of Dunster Castle during the Regency era. The image shows the imposing structure with its towering turrets, intricate stonework, and sprawling gardens. At the time, the castle was in the possession of Sir John Fowles Luttrell, the 10th Baronet, who was a prominent figure in Somerset society. He was preceded by Sir FitzWilliam Barrington, 9th Baronet, who had made significant improvements to the castle and its surrounding lands, including the acquisition of the Manor of Swainston in Isle of Wight. The engraving captures the essence of the castle's history and the opulence of the Regency period. It serves as a reminder of the aristocratic families who once called Dunster Castle home and the rich legacy they left behind. Today, the castle is a popular tourist destination and a symbol of the region's rich history and architectural heritage.
