Cragside, built by Lord Armstrong.

I believe it was the original Hampton Court, built by Cardinal Worsley.
Water was fed through a lead pipe from a hill across the Thames. It continued to supply water to the palace until the 1950's when the Thames was very low and a heavy barge snapped it.
Not bad for 600 years old.
