Mary was held captive in England till her death in 1587 in a number of different locations:

  • Mary stayed in Workington Hall on her first night in England in 1568.
  • She was taken to Carlisle Castle and put under guard on the 18 May 1568.
  • Mary was moved to Bolton Castle in mid-1568.
  • Mary was moved to Tutbury Castle at the beginning of 1569.
  • She was moved to Chartley Castle in 1585. This was to make sure she was not freed from captivity.
