				Thanks to Haibane for this..<br><br>http://www.hevac-heritage.org/items_of_interest/heating/national_trust_properties/cragside/cragside.htm (http://www.hevac-heritage.org/items_of_interest/heating/national_trust_properties/cragside/cragside.htm)<br><br>A bit small but we now have - ta da! - floorplans!<br><br>Also, have found that this house was owned by Charles Armstrong the engineer and gun manufacturer. Armstrong guns were used in warships all over the world and Armstrong cannons were used in many land wars including the American Civil War. Armstrong used hydroelectric power from the lake above his house to drive turbines to make electricity so that this became the first house, or large building of any kind in the world to be lit by electricity. There were also electric roasting spits in the kitchen and a very advanced system of plumbing, heating and hot water in the house.<br><br>In our version of it we could even have electric powered fucking machines if you like ;) Something like a horse saddle with whirling dildos on it or whatever His Lordship's deviant mind can think up within the technology. Such a device would totally freak out a slave because she'd never have seen anything like it.<br><br>The main entrance is at the 'back' of the house, here:<br><br>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cragside1.jpg (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cragside1.jpg)<br><br>With the 'pretty' frontage overlooking the valley with gardens on the left side of the plan:<br><br>http://www.gardenvisit.com/garden/cragside_house_garden_and_grounds (http://www.gardenvisit.com/garden/cragside_house_garden_and_grounds)<br><br>You can see the prominent bayed windows of the Library and Morning Room above it in that picture to the left end.<br><br>As you can see from the ground floor plan, we have a main door to the bottom left, and the courtyard where wagons can pass through an arch to the right.<br><br>(http://www.hevac-heritage.org/items_of_interest/heating/national_trust_properties/cragside/cragside_2.jpg)<br><br>On that right hand side of the courtyard we have a still room and bakery but if you turn left in the doorway there is a long thin un-named room above it, to the right of where it says 'Court'. I think this could be the slave harem with the wider part lower down as the lounge and the narrower upper part a big communal sleeping room. Above that under the staircase is a little room that can be the slaves bathroom and up a corridor to the top is a greyed out area that can be the training and punishment room.<br><br>On the other side of the courtyard is the 'service' part of the house with kitchen, butlers pantry (food storage) and butlers office and bedroom. There is a greyed out room to the left of the arch and above the butlers room which could be the housekeepers room and office; we'll assume a corridor connects it to somewhere near the butlers room and kitchen. Below the kitchen is a greyed out area which is probably servants rooms with the thin corridor-looking room on the right as the second butlers office and bedroom and the big room as the servants dining room.<br><br>Then down the left hand side of the ground floor we have all the best public rooms - Dining Room, Library, Japanese Room, Garden Alcove Room, Study and stairs up to the bedrooms.<br><br>(http://www.hevac-heritage.org/items_of_interest/heating/national_trust_properties/cragside/cragside_3.jpg)<br><br>On the upper floor we have, at the very top right a greyed out room which is above the slaves quarters and could be another training or punishment facility, or this could be their bedroom, as Kaz prefers. Moving left anti-clockwise we have bedrooms: Brown Room with it's own bathroom - this has stairs access across over the arch to the greyed out room so I suggest the Brown Bedroom is His Lordships room as it has direct and private access to the slaves quarters without having to go through the rest of the house. Then Bamboo Bedroom, Morning Room (not a bedroom and with huge curved bay window), Red bedroom (with below it a dressing room), White Bedroom, Yellow Bedroom and at the bottom Boudoir Room. Across above the entrance hall we go towards the social section of the upstairs which is laid out to be away from all the bedrooms: the Gallery, Drawing Room (presumably for the ladies) and Billiard Room (presumably for the gentlemen). You'll note rather nicely that the Drawing Room/Billiard Room complex is over the still room with some small corridors and stairs behind them which go down to the lower floor and come out very near my suggested slave harem room, thus if the gentlemen or their guests are upstairs relaxing of an evening it is easy to order up a slave or two for entertainment via these stairs.<br><br>In the centre of the upper floor above the kitchen area is a greyed out series of small rooms which I think are the maids and footmens quarters.<br><br>Finally perched high up above the bottom left corner is an upper floor that comprises a large suite of Owl Bedroom, Owl Bathroom (which I think has been misprinted bedroom again on the plan) and Dressing Room. I think the Owl Suite would suit the elder son maybe?<br><br>If we call the Watercolour Gallery off the main Gallery a bedroom as well we have 8 bedrooms which I think is enough for family and guests. The Morning Room up on that floor is where the family and guests would take breakfast, read the papers and chat until they decide to go down and start their day.<br><br>

				Small pix this time sadly but still useful.<br><br>Billiard Room:<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-2.jpg)<br><br>Scullery:<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-3.jpg)<br><br>Butler's Pantry showing wicker hampers that contain hot drink sets for taking out on hunts, shooting parties, etc:<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-6.jpg)<br><br>Inglenook fireplace in the dining room. The stone beam across the top of the picture is the wall of the room, and this small 'room' is set back some six to eight feet and at the back of it is the chimney, with windows either side and facing the centre small couches to sit and read or do needlework by the fire. Looks like a mighty fine place to shag to me, also a slave could be hung up by manacles from the stone lintel and have her bare back or front exposed to the heat of the fire while she was whipped / tormented / raped on the other side.<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-8.jpg)<br><br>On the very right hand side of this picture you can see the arch and the start of the straight lintel and one of the inglenook seats.<br><br>(http://www.bbc.co.uk/tyne/content/images/2006/08/04/19732_470x379.jpg)<br><br>Another view of the study:<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-11.jpg)<br><br>Main staircase:<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-12.jpg)<br><br>Owl Bedroom. Not yet been able to find any pix of the bedrooms and this one is tiny. It is called the Owl Bedroom because of the large carved wooden owls stood atop the half-posts at the foot of the bed. I guess it's the owl bed and so it becomes the owl bed room, rather than the room having to do with owls.<br><br>(http://www.achome.co.uk/architecture/pictures/c-13.jpg)
