The plot to overthrow Elizabeth I failed, and Raby became forfeit to the Crown.
Built round an internal courtyard, Raby's defences included inner and outer curtain walls surrounded by a broad ditch.

One of the busiest shops in Broad Walk was Bellmans, selling wool and patterns for babies and young children.
The baby asleep in the pram to the right is oblivious of the window boxes overhead.
