	Bolton Castle Bolton Castle stands in its prominent position, guarding the landscape of the North Yorkshire Dales unchanged in over 600 years. Many of the castles in this part of the country are now in ruin or have disappeared altogether after being plundered by raiding Scots or destroyed during the Civil War, their stonework being robbed over the centuries by local villagers for their own buildings and stone walls. But Bolton Castle stands proud to this day, along with the memories of the great family of the Scropes of Wensleydale.
