Hi All,
Yesterday I had the pleasure of visiting 78 Derngate, Northampton. It's the only house in England that Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed (the interior - the building was already 100 years old), and you nay have seen it on H&L. It's still work in progress, but it's already an excellent experience, most of the rooms are furnished and there are some splendid examples of his later designs.
I can thoroughly recommend it as a trip for anyone interested in design. You do have to book ahead though, as it is not big.
Plenty of other good demestic architecture in Northampton as well, I noticed.
Cheers
Steve
