Little History lesson about Runcorn/halton

Postby Mynameisnemo » Sun Mar 12, 2006 2:08 pm

I've been meaning to do this for a while now but one of the things that the area i live in is famous for its Castle, so today even though it was snowing i decided to take a trek up to it to give you an idea of how old it is.......
sorry about the picture quality i took these on a Sony Ericsson W800i mobile phone.....

Not sure of the name of this church but it roughly dates back to the time that the castle was built.

i've got a fair bit of information about this castle aswell which i'll post up if anyone would like to know more about it.
hopefully i'll get round to posting some better shots than the ones i've posted when the weather pics up.

Yes please. More history would be good. ;)

for those who would like the information about Halton/Runcorn castle, they have a website: www.haltoncastle.org .

Which would explain it in a lot more detail than i could ever do.
