Bamburgh Castle Globes
Two of the most conspicuous objects from the collection of the First Lord and Lady Armstrong, William and Margaret, are the terrestrial and celestial globes. The globes are displayed prominently in the Cross Hall, the centrepiece of the King’s Hall. This is a formal but enjoyable, expansive space. For Lord and Lady Armstrong, who had business links around the world, the globes served a decorative and practical purpose.
