More about this scene
The plot to overthrow Elizabeth I failed, and Raby became forfeit to the Crown. In 1645 it was bought by the Vane family, who were Royalists. Following a surprise attack, Raby fell to the Parliamentarians, but not to be outdone Sir George Vane retook it, and managed to hold onto it despite being besieged in 1648.
