Richard would make at least two attempts in 1451 and 1452 to be recognised as Henry VI’s heir, (the king was childless at the time). Whilst Richard’s political influence would wane in the early 1450s, the king’s health would greatly increase it again. In August 1453 Henry VI had some form of nervous breakdown, likely catatonic schizophrenia. News of the English defeat at the Battle of Castillon has been suggested as the likely main trigger for Henry’s illness. The defeat saw the loss of all the English possessions in France, save Calais. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/e48ea045-3264-448c-a891-e7f47a1fd7c8/Arms_of_Cecily_Neville%2C_Duchess_of_York.svg.png Castle Blog - The Woman who Would be Queen: The Life of Cecily Neville, Duchess of York - The king’s illness combined with the young age of his son led to a power vacuum and massive instability. When it became clear that Henry’s illness was going to be long-lasting the Duke of York was appointed Protector of the Realm and Chief Councillor in late March 1454, whilst Cecily’s brother Richard Neville, 5th Earl of Salisbury was made Chancellor. When Henry recovered the Yorkist faction was removed from power, battlelines having been firmly drawn between the Duke of York and Henry’s Consort Margaret of Anjou. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/b56e8f4e-db52-4c74-b8a4-58bb776890f5/small_orig_cecily_neville_and_queen_margaret_of_anjou.jpg Castle Blog - The Woman who Would be Queen: The Life of Cecily Neville, Duchess of York - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/castle-blog/the-exits-are-located-here-here-and-here-the-north-easts-links-to-crash-bar-exits monthly 0.5 2025-12-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/c868cbf9-bfeb-4c80-87d5-535bca874ef3/victoriahall6.jpg Castle Blog - The Exits are Located Here, Here and Here: The North East’s Links to Crash Bar Exits - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/30c1a540-17cb-4982-9dcf-28e7780b1846/victoriahall1.jpg Castle Blog - The Exits are Located Here, Here and Here: The North East’s Links to Crash Bar Exits - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/castle-blog/the-doctor-will-see-you-now-royal-illnesses-and-injuries monthly 0.5 2025-10-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/54616ace-6e4b-4e2b-89e1-8496152a760d/John_Bradmore_extractor.jpg Castle Blog - The Doctor Will See You Now: Royal Illnesses and Injuries - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/86c1b956-ad1d-4aa3-aa73-3c681b32127e/Queen_Anne_Boleyn_Wellcome_V0048326.jpg Castle Blog - The Doctor Will See You Now: Royal Illnesses and Injuries - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/castle-blog/the-newcastle-whitecoats monthly 0.5 2025-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/e81613f2-5129-448d-848a-2ceb3bb2393e/4061151201_873a52c23a_c.jpg Castle Blog - The Newcastle Whitecoats - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/444f1963-985c-44f5-b42d-384bbc874453/14814958981_6b6b7f13b9_b.jpg Castle Blog - The Newcastle Whitecoats - Make it stand out The Sealed Knot re-enactment group. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/castle-blog/what-happens-at-night-north-east-folk-songs-after-dark monthly 0.5 2025-07-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/52d135ef-c0ba-4f57-932d-350b5357b12d/fiddle_dancer.jpg Castle Blog - What happens at night?

Upon his arrival, he sees the Green Knight sharpening his axe. Slowly, Gawain bows his neck to receive the blow. The Green Knight raises his axe, and the force of the swing causes Gawain to flinch. The Green Knight mocks this, and determined to remain valiant, Gawain does not flinch as the Green Knight goes for the second swing. Not yet beheaded, Gawain notices the Green Knight is withholding the full force of his strength. The Green Knight explains he was simply testing Gawain’s nerve, and proceeds to deliver his blow, which causes a slight nick on the back of Gawain’s neck and ends the challenge. The Green Knight starts laughing, and reveals himself to be Bertilak de Hautdesert, the Lord of the Castle where Gawain rested. He explains to Gawain the first two swings were to acknowledge the days where Gawain upheld his side of the pact, however the third left a nick because of his attempt to conceal the sash. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/castle-blog/stjohn monthly 0.5 2022-12-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/f5ba13a5-521b-45fb-afcb-5b069d0f5129/4084887395_90c8e182e3_o.jpg Castle Blog -

In 1306, when The Bruce was living as an outlaw fighting a guerrilla war against the English, Mary was captured along with Robert’s wife and daughter by the Earl of Ross, who handed them over to Edward I. He had her imprisoned for four years in a cage exposed to public view at the Castle of Roxburgh. But in 1310 his son, Edward II, had her moved to a more comfortable imprisonment in Newcastle Castle. As a valuable hostage she was probably kept in the Castle Keep’s high-status cell. In 1314 she was finally released after eight years of captivity when she was exchanged for English lords taken prisoner at the Battle of Bannockburn. She went on to marry one of her brother’s supporters, and then another powerful Lord when her first husband died, becoming a major player in Scottish politics. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1600278826531-GJ2VAOPXMAVK274NXOL7/Matilda_pose1.jpg Castle Characters - Matilda the Barber (Barber-surgeon) Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

The King, Edward II and his close companion Piers Gaveston had fled from the anger of rebellious barons and were hiding out in Newcastle. Piers had fallen ill with what the chronicles of the time call a “secret illness” and William was called to the Castle to treat him. As a medieval physician, William was a highly educated individual who had attended University for at least ten years and had probably studied in one of the great medical centres like Oxford, Paris, Padua or Salerno. To diagnose his patient he would have relied on a mixture of astrology, investigating the patients urine and the theory of the four humours. Not everyone in medieval England trusted physicians, with many thinking they were little more than greedy charlatans. Speaking of which, William was paid over £6 for a couple of days work treating Piers, in an age when the average wage was just 2d per day! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1600278896352-BTSHZLY566NR0ZR1E0QQ/soldiers_pose1.jpg Castle Characters - Odo and Eustace (Surly Guards) Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

By the end of the following year, nearly half the population of the town would be dead. Doctors of the time knew nothing about what caused the plague or how it was spread, with theories ranging from clouds of foul air, poisoned wells and the wrath of God. Because most of the real physicians were rich enough to flee the town to escape the disease, that left many towns employing barely qualified Plague Doctors to investigate outbreaks and diagnose possible victims. The costume they wore was said to have been invented by a French doctor in the early 1600s, and consisted of a long robe, gloves, tall boots and the beak shaped mask that was stuffed with sweet smelling herbs to ward off the bad air. Plague Doctors could not cure the Plague of course, but they were important in imposing quarantines, whereby infected households were isolated to prevent the spread of the disease. Despite everything they tried, in Newcastle in 1636 it was not enough, and it was said the streets were deserted until the grass began to grow through the paving. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1600278975416-7DMBO72BQ37X694ZVXUV/maurice_pose1.jpg Castle Characters - Maurice the Engineer (Master Mason) Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

The miller's wife of Chatton, Jane would have been a highly regarded member of her community. Her and her husband would have provided the flour for those in her village to make bread. We have a very limited amount of information on Jane's life, but what we do know comes from a pamphlet titled The Wondefull Newes from the North. It is here that her sister's confession is noted. In it, her sister explains how together, they had caused harm to multiple people, as well as supposedly consulting with the devil. From these confessions, Jane and her sister are brought to Newcastle as part of the wider witch trials of 1649/1650 and tried and hanged for their crimes. The 1600s was a tumultuous time for people living in England, and this context gives us a lot of clues as to why the Newcastle Witch Trials may have taken place. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/bigg-market daily 0.75 2021-09-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632318998096-RM5E0JN7453QPX83S8FI/4080625689_2671a81e74.jpg Bigg Market https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632319041093-9PQUSQE7NDH8I4NGE8QN/bigg-market-newcastle-1820.jpg Bigg Market https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632318058659-NLUUA81J888OZTJROGIE/jeKCs72e_400x400.png Bigg Market - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632318306066-8APZO83ZRFF2V1C6N3IL/BMP+logo.jpg Bigg Market - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.newcastlecastle.co.uk/bigg-market-educational-resources daily 0.75 2021-09-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632322975649-F94XVS60YQ5QK55YX9S6/jeKCs72e_400x400.png Bigg Market Educational Resources - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632322957287-MSJ1B09NYCF9CCICXQGD/BMP+logo.jpg Bigg Market Educational Resources - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e271471e410453315a44e1a/1632323184002-DN903O2HGBN0R0T99HAK/Bigg+Market Bigg Market Educational Resources - Bigg Market Resource Pack Resource pack for teaching local history.
