Etal Castle, in the centre of Etal hamlet, was built in the mid-14th century by Robert Manners as a defence against Scots attacks.
James IV’s conquering Scots army took the fortified tower house near a ford over the River Till in 1513, soon before their disastrous defeat at nearby Flodden.
The award-winning display in the 19th-century chapel depicts the epic storey of Flodden as well as the Anglo-Scottish border struggle that ended with the accession of James I in 1603.
