Catherine Grandison de Montecute was a lady of great beauty, and history records that she was as good as she was beautiful. She also was a brave woman, worthy of such a brave and noble man as was her husband, the Earl of Salisbury. She nobly defended and aided with heroic valour the defense of the Castle of Werk, with her husband's brother, Sir Edward de Montecute, and also bravely defended her own Castle of Salisbury from King David of Scotland, while her husband was a prisoner of war in France.
