Vermutlicher Baubeginn eines Herrenhauses. 1305 De Raymes erhält die königliche Erlaubnis seinen Sitz zu befestigen. 1311/1312 Schottische Truppen unter Robert the Bruce fallen immer wieder im nordenglischen Grenzland ein und verwüsten Corbridge und Umgebung. 1315 In Abwesenheit von Robert de Raymes übergibt der mit der Verteidigung betraute Hugh de Gales Aydon Castle kampflos an schottische Angreifer. 1317 Nach dem Zusammenbruch der englischen Herrschaft in Northumbrien lässt derselbe Hugh de Gales Aydon Castle plündern und verwüsten. 1346 Das inzwischen mit einem halbrunden Nordturm verstärkte Aydon Castle wird während der neuerlichen schottischen Invasion unter König David II. angegriffen. Die Verteidiger kapitulieren. 1450 Aydon Castle wird als verfallen erwähnt, vielleicht als Folge des englisch-schottischen Krieges von 1448-49, Aydon wird von wechselnden Pächtern genutzt. 1654 Aydon wird an einen lokalen Farmer verkauft. 1751 Aydon Castle gelangt in den Besitz der Blackett-Familie, die es als Farm verpachtet. ca. 1830 Das wachsende Interesse an mittelalterlichen Bauten führt zu umfassenden Renovierungen der stark vernachlässigten Bausubstanz. 1899 Der Schriftsteller William Tomlinson beschreibt das Anwesen als "Farmhaus besserer Klasse". 1966 Sir Charles Blackett übergibt Aydon Castle in die Obhut des Staates.

Structures indicate the region was inhabited Fduring the Stone Age and artefacts from the Bronze and Iron Ages have also been found. The Romans left a more obvious mark in Hadrian’s Wall but it was Anglian invaders that led to the creation of Northumbria. The kingdoms of Bernica and Deira became one under Ӕthelfrith and, when Athelstan was crowned king, Northumbria became part of England. The Normans also made their presence felt, as they rebuilt many of the monasteries, founded abbeys and added castles (mainly defensive structures against the Scots) and it’s these that make the county so interesting. When the countries united under James VI, many of the castles became less important and their decline was inevitable. It’s these ruins that bring the countryside alive. The county also played its part in the Industrial Revolution producing the coal that helped power the growth of the British Empire around the world.
