Knaresborough Castle resides on an outcrop overlooking the town of Knaresborough and Nidd Valley in North Yorkshire, England. The first reference to the castle occurred in 1129 when it was recorded that 11 pounds were spent on the castle by its custodian Eustice Fitz-John. The castle later played a historical role in 1170 when its owner Hugh de Morville fled to it after taking part in the infamous murder of Archbishop Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral.
