The Duke of Omnium's seat in West Barsetshire.
"The castle was a new building of white stone, lately erected at an enormous cost by one of the first architects of the day. It was an immense pile, and seemed to cover ground enough for a moderate-sized town. But, nevertheless, report said that, when it was completed, the noble owner found that he had no rooms to live in; and that, on this account, when disposed to study his own comfort, he resided in a house of perhaps a tenth the size, built by his grandfather in another county" - Dr Thorne
Mentioned in all of the Parliamentary series, but particularly in The Prime Minister, when it was used by the Duchess for her great political house parties also in Framley Parsonage and Doctor Thorne.
