Scrapbook 39: Lucknow--Melvin Village NH [aka: Castle in the Clouds, Moultonborough, NH] contains images of the interior, exterior, and surrounding landscape of Lucknow, a mansion built high in the New Hampshire Mountains in 1913-1914 by Thomas G. Plant (1859-1941). Since 2006, it has been a museum and venue for meetings and events. Photographs are undated but seem to have been taken in the early years of the house. There are also many images of the Bald Peak Colony Club, also built by Plant on adjacent property. It had a hotel and cottages as well as a golf course, images of which are included. There are photos of the golf grounds and golf matches with onlookers and identified golfers.
