More about this scene
During the Civil War in the 1600s Halton Castle was besieged and subsequently 'slighted' - in other words it was damaged to such an extent that it could not be refortified. The gatehouse survived, however, and was still being used as a prison in the 1700s. Today there is a pub called the Castle that sits on the site.
