Cragside is a country house near Rothbury in Northumberland, England. It was the first house in the world to be lit using hydroelectric power. Built into a rocky hillside above a 4 kmē forest garden, it was the country home of Lord Armstrong and has been in the care of the National Trust since 1977. Cragside, named after Cragend Hill above the house, was built in 1863 as a modest, two-storey country lodge, but was subsequently extended to designs by Norman Shaw, transforming it into an elaborate mansion in the Free Tudor style.

"I am seeking, I am striving, I am in it with all my heart." Vincent van Gogh
Keeping it for it's sharpness, vivid blue sky, and the history behind it all. Wonderful shot.
