		At an early period in the civil wars Boarstall House, then belonging to Lady Dynham, widow of Sir John Dynham, was taken possession of by the Royalists, and converted into a garrison; but in 1644, when it was decided to concentrate the king's forces, Boarstall, among other of the smaller garrisons, was abandoned.
		The schoolboys were allowed by their master a free liberty that day, and many of them went thither (four miles distant) about eight or nine of the clock in the morning, to see the form of surrender, the strength of the garrison, and the soldiers of each party.

		The tower and the moat at Boarstall are all that remains of a moated manor house complex dating from the early 14th century.
		Archaeological evidence from the watching brief has confirmed that the existing crenellated parapet was built directly over the 14th century parapet, thereby encasing the embrasures of the original crenellations.
		The tower and the manor house are depicted in superb detail on an engraving dating from 1695 and it seems likely that the tower was raised in height to provide a viewing point over the formal garden landscape surrounding the manor house.
