The halls were lined with large windows designed to let in excess sunlight, illuminating the numerous paintings and tapestries that lined the walls. The grounds surrounding the Castle were perfectly manicured. The long, well-groomed lawns ensured visitors would have a long, uninterrupted view of the Castle as they made their way to the entrance, and that was the point. The Right Honorable Charles Howard, 3rd Earl of Carlisle, who had died 8 years ago in May, built to impress. The Castle was more than a home; it was a masterpiece of architectural ambition that was the outward manifestation of his political ambition. In his prime, Lord Charles Howard rose to the highest of political offices, acting for a time as the Lord Justice of the Realm, holding England together for a short time between the reigns of Queen Anne and King George I. In his time, Howard Castle played host to monarchs, generals, and the other Lords of the land. Many came to Howard Castle seeking political favors and alliances, and the long walk to Howard Castle ensured they arrived dutifully impressed with the power and privilege that resided there. Designed by Sir John Vanbrugh, its baroque splendor was unmatched. The estate contained vast gardens with classical statues, cascading fountains, and hedges stretching toward the River Derwent. It was a world of refinement and excess, where every corner whispered of the family's legacy, a legacy that William Howard, the grandson of Lord Charles, would one day squander.
