Greenhalgh Castle, now ruined, is near the town of Garstang in Lancashire, England. Thomas Stanley, 1st Earl of Derby, had the castle built in 1490 to provide defence for his estates around Garstang. The castle was built on a knoll that stood out from the marshy ground surrounding it. However, Oliver
Cromwell came this way and the castle was one of the last Royalist strongholds to stand against Parliamentary troops. The castle was pulled down by order of Cromwell and all that now remains is the ruin like a broken tooth.
