We decided that the best place for the cast iron was hanging above the stove. I had some old hooks forged by a local blacksmith that I used in the old house. Martin needed to reshape them slightly so they would work to hold the cast iron. Then we needed to figure out spacing and support. Since we didn't want to screw the hooks straight into the drywall, Martin repurposed some Brazilian cherry to make a section of wood to hold the cast iron and to protect the wall from bangs. (He knows me too well, because I am usually rushing to get dinner and wouldn't be extra careful taking down or hanging up cast iron frying pans and griddles.) The end result is this lovely cast iron rack.
