Newark-On-Trent History
The second siege of Newark-On-Trent was relieved by Prince Rupert in March 1644. After Rupert's departure, the artillery left behind by the defeated Parliamentarians was incorporated into Newark's defences, which were significantly extended. The Spittal, which had served as the Parliamentarian headquarters during the 1644 siege, was completely demolished and a great earthwork called the King's Sconce was constructed in its place. The sconce was nearly three hundred feet across and covered an area of three acres. It was square with arrow-head bastions at each corner where cannon were mounted, and was surrounded by a ditch up to thirty feet wide and fifteen feet deep. An identical fort was constructed to guard the southern approach to Newark. It was called the Queen's Sconce and still stands today.

Newark-on-Trent or Newark is a market town in Nottinghamshire in the East Midlands of England. It stands on the River Trent, the A1, and the East Coast Main Line railway. The origins of the town of Newark on Tren are possibly Roman as it lies on an important Roman road, the Fosse Way.
The town of Newark on Trent grew around Newark Castle, now ruined, and a large marketplace, now lined with historic buildings, and was a centre for the wool and cloth trade. In the English Civil War, Newark on Trent was besieged by Parliamentary forces and had to be relieved by Prince Rupert in a battle known as the Relief of Newark.

The Church of St. Mary Magdalene is a Grade I listed building, notable for the tower and the octagonal spire (236 feet (72 m) high), the tallest in the county. It was heavily restored in the mid-19th century by Sir George Gilbert Scott. The reredos was added by Sir Ninian Comper.
Newark Castle was built alongside the Trent by Alexander of Lincoln, the Bishop of Lincoln in 1123, who established it as a mint. Of the original Norman stronghold the most important remains are the gate-house, a crypt and the tower at the south-west angle. King John died at this castle on the night of 18 October 1216. In the reign of Edward III it was used as a state prison. During the English Civil War it was garrisoned for Charles I, and endured three sieges. Its dismantling was begun in 1646, immediately after the surrender of the king.

South Notts Hunt Visiting Newark-On-Trent 2010 Laurence Goff Peaceful Protest
1st January at 10.30am Laurence Goff Will be Out Once Again With his Personal Protest To The South Notts Hunt Visiting Newark-On-Trent Outside Newark Town Hall. I'm showing the scale of public opposition to hunting is vital if we're to prevent the return of this barbaric sport. It has been illegal to use dogs to hunt animals in England and Wales since 2005.
Newark-On-Trent a large crowd will turn outside Newark Town Hall in the Market Place to welcome The South Notts Hunt. I will gather for my traditional peaceful protest on 1st January at around 10.30am against them and for a Hunting: Ban. I welcome it will not be overturned. Hunts are no longer allowed to use dogs to chase foxes, instead supposed to use techniques such as drag hunting, where dogs set off on the trail of a scent in advance by a runner or rider dragging a lure.
They will not bring forward a lifting fox hunting ban.The Hunting Act 2004. There are more MPs who support the Hunting Act. I have to say it's worth bearing in mind that the vast majority of the public supportIt is worth bearing in mind that the vast majority of the public support the Hunting Act and are opposed to repeal and any politician who votes in favour of repeal will be doing so against the will of most of the people who voted him or her into parliament. The Hunting Act 2004.
Thousands of hunting enthusiasts will turn out again, they what to push to repeal the Hunting Act. I'm true to my conviction, no matter what anyone else thinks about me. I will be true to one values/morals and standards at all time. I remember that other people may attempt to convince me to act against my judgment, principles and conscience which we all have.Fox hunting lobby to reignite anti ban campaign.Most members of the House of Commons.
MPs voted to change the Hunting Bill in order to ban fox hunting by 362 to 154 a majority of 208.The Campaign for the Protection of Hunted Animals (CPHA).
