In 1216 Hugh de Balliol helped King John defend the North
against a revolt by Northumbrian barons who were
supported by Alexander I, King of Scotland. In July Barnard
was besieged by Alexander's forces. Little is known about this siege although it appears to have been unsuccessful,
and it claimed the life of Alexander's brother-in-law, Eustace de Vesci, killed by a crossbow bolt fired from the castle.
