Castle Howard, near Malton (Yorks.), is one of the grandest houses privately built, comparable with
Chatsworth. It was commissioned by the 3rd earl of
Carlisle, who began in 1699 to transform the sprawling hamlet of Henderskelfe. The main house was designed by
Vanbrugh. The three great features are a superb south front, the imposing dome, and an extensive park, dominated by Vanbrugh's Temple of the Four Winds and
Hawksmoor's sombre mausoleum.
