Bruce Castle in Tottenham, England, also known as 'Lordship House' is a 16th century Manor made from original Tudor bricks with walls 3 feet thick. 

Originally owned in 1254 by part of the De Bruce family, when Robert the Bruce became King of Scotland.

The property was later owned by a good friend of Henry VIII, Sir William Compton.  Henry VIII actually stayed at the castle and dined with his sister Margaret Queen of Scotland and in 1593 Queen Elizabeth also visited. The castle was also as refuge from the Plague. 

In 1626 Hugh Hare lived there and he died a sudden and painful death by choking on a turkey bone at a supper one evening. The irony being that he had actually joked about choking the evening prior.

Hughs son, Henry Hare, went on to inherit the home and moved in with his young beautiful bride. However, it is said that he grew tired of his wife and banished her to the top of the towers where he kept her prisoner under lock and key.

Unable to bear it any longer, Lucy committed suicide by jumping off a balcony. It is believed Lady Constantia haunts the property today and many have witnessed her apparition, holding her child, eerily walking the grounds.

Lady Constantia Lucy has since been known as the 'Ghost of Bruce Castle' ever since. 

Rich in history and an honour to see, will you walk in Robert The Bruces footsteps?  Who knows, maybe you will catch a glimpse of a truly unfortunate Lady.
