Flint from the Cliffs of Dover, English and Indiana blackstone grace the exterior of this English Tudor castle commissioned by Carl and Edith Weeks. Built from 1923 to 1928, Salisbury House features 42 elaborate rooms and is designed to look like the King's Hall in Salisbury, England. The house centers on the castle's Great Hall and features exposed beams and woodwork. Guests are welcome to admire its many riches. On display are exquisite period pieces as well as a collection of unusual art relics that ranges from an ancient Cyprian pottery vase to Indian tapestries.   (© 10Best)
