I thought this big, hand-drawn map of the area was really cool.

Cragside Hall, Rothbury, Northumberland, England, UK.

 

Cragside was the home of Victorian engineer Lord William Armstrong (1810 - 1900). It was the first property to be lit by hydro-electricity, using Sir Joseph Swan's newly invented filament light bulbs.

 

The house, built between 1863 and 1884, set in 369 hectares (911 acres) of well-kept gardens and woodland, along with two nearby farms in the River Coquet valley passed to the Crown in 1977 in lieu of part death duties after the death of the 2nd Lord Armstrong, William Montagu, the 3rd generation nephew of the original William Armstrong. The Crown passed stewardship to The National Trust.

 

Bridge The wrought iron footbridge over Debdon Burn at Cragside was manufactured in the 1870s at Lord Armstrong's Elswick Works. It is charming if a little illogical.

 

The bridge is supported by a single arch as its main span, with two half-arches to either side, acting more like a cantilever than a genuine arch structure. The slender arch ribs are its attractive feature.

 

Each spandrel contains two intersecting arches, defying structural orthodoxy. What appears to be an elegant, layered arrangement of forms results in significant transverse loading to the arch ribs. This introduces a twist, reducing the material efficiency. However, a "correct" geometry for this system would introduce kinks into the main arch, which would be far less graceful.

I worked on this puzzle several days last week, just to keep myself puzzling. The puzzle has a great feel with a special "wood finish" texture of pieces.

 

This photo has a bit warmer colors, as it was not taken on direct daylight.

I've been thinking about creating a playlist of songs about North American history. I thought I'd start a music map to keep track of the "where" of songs as I think of them. Consider this a work in progress... Who has ideas to suggest?
