The same single pm sent me 1000+ email notifications, which all dropped into my spam folder...

Anyone else experiencing this?

Not sure where this sat best, here or in the events section..

Anyhow herewith a review of our recent Easter event at Tutbury Castle:

https://harringtoncompanye.wordpress.co ... stle-2016/

The Harrington Companye are an award winning 15th Century living history group based in Northamptonshire, but with wider membership across the land (currently Essex, Beds, Bucks, Cambs, Staffordshire, Derbyshire and South East London). We are part of the Medieval Siege Society, and can be seen at th...

The best work on this particular subject I've come across was the episode of "twentieth century battlefields" on the telly box. You can find it on YouTube

No evidence

the Cobham household of the medieval siege society is very active in Essex, and train regularly at Weald Country Park

Hi - whereabouts are you based? Do you have your own transport?

I think this has been coming a while now, if you look at the wider Heritage 'Industry' the signposts have been there. Howard Giles even presented to Nares on this subject a few years back. Big Events are passing into the west with the Elves. They are simply too much financial risk, on a single weeke...

Sir William Harringtons Companye have some active members in Derbyshire, I'll put you in touch

That's my understanding but evidence wise I'll have to dig some out.

Need to update that, we successfully had it added to the battlefields register last year.

Welsh television has been waking up to this 'forgotten' battle too - have been working with a production company on research and filming

Whilst not to dilute your research then could I suggest you take a look at 1469 Edgecote? Arguably the darkest day in welsh history, and pivotal in allowing bosworth to happen

You'd be wanting the Medieval Siege Society then. There's a kent social gathering on the 9th may - pop along and see if it's for you..?

Depending upon how far you wish to drive we're east of you in Northampton, though we are at Kenilworth Castle near you twice this year.

I was at the venue last weekend for an antique fair. Venue is excellent

45,000 Mops is a Helluva lot of MOPs.

Hi Guthrie - yes, I'm looking for a dining shelter too, trying to do the research before I buy!!

I'm going to be charitable and assume the vendor has come up with the best word to describe the item as opposed to a direct parallel from text. Is there any evidence for such an awning however?

Has anyone seen any evidence for this sort of awning? http://www.famwest.co.uk/uk/period-tents-and-medieval-pavilions/baldachin/ A baldachin to me is something different, that’s an indoor canopy above a throne or similar. I’ve had a look at the larsdatter site, and other sources and whilst I have se...

...then how do the hose stay up?

You've just missed our Kent December pub social meet (by mere days) but I'll find out when they are meeting in January and let you know

Sorry I may have misunderstood but my reading was it was 40k for the bannockburn event as opposed to the armed forces day.

40,000...? Did I read that correct? Is that over the weekend or per day? That is... A lot. I'd like to see the sums that make it viable. The biggest reenactment I was involved in was hasting 2006, which from memory had 13,000 public per day. That was in the south east, and London alone has as big a ...

Tod / Fox / Griff - actually, you'll find the East Midlands has more local interest in Scotland than you realise - we have Corby. Source of general local amusement on who gets it if Independence goes through. And actually a source of deep hatred for mr Salmond who has pretty much denied the Scots fa...

The Mss have a number of households in the area www.medieval-siege-society.co.uk

Tsk. Northeast. My bad

Fancy a walk with a difference? Tomorrow (26th July) is the anniversary of the 1469 Battle of Edgecote, which took place a few miles northwest of Banbury. Members of the Medieval Siege Society will be walking the battlefield, and placing red and white roses at the site of the heaviest fighting. Come...
