John Scrope , 8th Baron Scrope of Bolton was a somewhat reluctant supporter of the Pilgrimage of Grace , a northern uprising in protest at the reforms of Henry VIII but incurred the king 's displeasure when he allowed sanctuary to Adam Sedbar , Abbot of Jervaulx who was on the run from the King 's Commissioners . Scrope was himself obliged to seek refuge in Skipton castle and the King 's men fired his Bolton castle residence . Abbot Sedbar was caught and executed
