The Library, Scotney Castle, Kent

Lamberhurst, Tunbridge Wells, Kent

At the top of the garden stands a house which was built to replace the Old Castle between 1835 and 1843. This is known as Scotney
New Castle, or simply Scotney Castle, and was designed by Anthony Salvin. It is an early, and unusually restrained, example of Tudor
Revival architectural style in 19th century Britain. Following the death of the resident, Elizabeth Hussey, in 2006, this house was
opened to the public for the first time on June 6, 2007.

A fantastic image with the flow of natural light from the window on the left.
A nice plumb image with detail to spare.
When you can see inside of the fireplace with the screen in place that is what I call sharp.
The carvings and decor is amazing.
