Lancaster Castle has been a prison since at least 1196 and is now partly open to the public. The notorious Pendle Witches trial took place here and the castle survived an attack by Robert Bruce and more than one royalist attack during the English civil war. Lancaster Castle is currently owned by Queen Elizabeth II.
1. The Plough Hotel (Kirkby Lonsdale/Hotels in Kirkby Lonsdale)
The Plough is situated just off junction 36 of the M6. Near Kirkby Lonsdale and a short distance from Windermere and the Lakes. Kendal and Lancaster being the nearest town and city. A great stop off traveling up or down from Scotland.
