the Scottish invasions and border reivers. It was besieged in 1172 and again in 1174 by William the Lion, King of Scotland and William was captured outside the walls during the Battle of Alnwick. In 1309 it was bought from Antony Bek the Bishop of Durham by Henry de Percy, 1st Baron Percy and it has been owned by the Percy family, the Earls and later Dukes of Northumberland since then. The first Percy lord of Alnwick restored the castle and the Abbot’s Tower, the Middle Gateway and the Constable’s Tower survive from this period. In 1404–5 the Percys rebelled against Henry IV, who besieged and then took the castle.   There,you can enjoy the Cottages which with many flowers,and have a good rest in The Alnwick Garden,the most romantic thing is to have an unforgettable wedding in the historical castle.Another reason of visiting is that the construction there,old and mystical.Because of the special of it,many movies and TV plays were shoot here.
