Immediately after the fall of Warrington , the Roundheads requested that the countess acknowledge Parliament ' s authority and surrender her house , but she refused on the grounds that doing so would dishonour her husband . She offered to limit herself to defending her home , and this postponed further attacks on her position . In February 1644 , Latham House was sieged by the forces of Sir Thomas Fairfax . Lady Charlotte had fortified the castle to resist bombardment and assembled a militia of seasoned marksmen who were able to inflict significant losses by sniping , and she expressly denied repeated offers of surrender .
