The Honours have had a turbulent past. They were removed from The Castle and hidden in 1651-60 to keep them from Oliver Cromwell 's army.

In 1707, following The Act of Union between England and Scotland, they were Locked In a chest and sealed away.

In 1818, Sir Walter Scott , the famous novelist, rediscovered the Honours - along with a mysterious silver wand.
