| - East Cowes Castle, located in East Cowes, was the home of architect John Nash between its completion and his death in 1835. Nash himself was the designer of the site, and began construction as early as 1798. It was completed in 1800 and was said to have been built at unlimited expense. Nash was finally interred in the grounds. On Nash's death, the estate was sold to the Earl of Shannon who added a lodge at the south of the estate. It was then briefly held by the politician, George Tudor, before being acquired by the Viscount Gort family, who held it until 1934. (en)
- East Cowes Castle war ein Landhaus in der Stadt East Cowes auf der englischen Insel Isle of Wight. Der Architekt John Nash entwarf es, ließ es bauen und lebte dort von der Fertigstellung bis zu seinem Tod 1835. Die Bauarbeiten begannen schon 1798. Nash liegt auf dem Anwesen begraben. Das Bauwerk wurde wegen seiner aufwändigen, burgähnlichen Ausstattung mit Zinnen, seinen gotischen Tourellen und Türmen bekannt, ebenso wie für die illustren Gäste Nashs, z. B. den Prinzregenten oder den Maler William Turner, der das Gebäude auch malte. (de)
- L'East Cowes Castle era la residenza dell'architetto inglese John Nash che lo abitò sino alla sua morte, avvenuta nel 1835. Lo stesso Nash progettò la costruzione del castello e ne seguì i lavori, che si conclusero nel 1789. L'edificio sorgeva sull'isola di Wight. La struttura richiamava gli antichi castelli gotici tipici delle regioni dell'Europa settentrionale. Nella residenza vennero ospitati personaggi illustri, come membri della corte e dell'aristocrazia. L'ospite più celebre fu William Turner, che dipinse una tela rappresentante il paesaggio attorno al maniero. (it)
