Malbone Castle by James Hess Leach
Malbone Castle by James Hess Leach, Gothic Revival mansion in Newport, Rhode Island, United States.
The two-story Malbone Castle features pink sandstone walls, Gothic trim details, and multiple fireplaces constructed from different materials throughout the residence.
The current mansion, built in 1849 by architect Alexander Jackson Davis, replaced the original 1741 structure that burned down during a dinner party in 1766.
The mansion contains intricate black walnut paneling with detailed carvings in three second-floor rooms, installed by carpenter William Barlow in 1883.
The residence measures 40 feet by 80 feet and includes four main sections with sitting rooms, a large dining area, and a library wing added after 1862.
The estate grounds contain the largest collection of European beech trees in North America and preserve remnants of 18th-century garden features including ponds.
