British Provincial School late 18th century- Figures by a river with a weir and mill, below the distant ruins of Knaresborough Castle, watercolour, recto, "Knaresbro" hand drawn map pen and black ink, with inscription and dated 1701, verso, 40x40cm: Note: Knaresborough Castle consists of a group of ruins overlooking the town of Knaresborough, North Yorkshire and the valley of the River Nidd. It was built around 1100 by a Norman baron on a cliff above the River Nidd. In the 1170s, Hugh de Moreville, Lord of Westmorland and his followers took refuge there after assassinating Thomas Beckett. The castle was later rebuilt between 1301 and 1307 by Edward I of England and later completed by Edward II of England. The castle was taken by Parliamentarian troops in 1644 during the Civil War and largely destroyed in 1648, not as the result of warfare, but because of an order from Parliament to dismantle all Royalist castles. Many town centre buildings are built of 'castle stone'.
