Stanway House – The Siege of Gloucester

May 28, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - May 29, 2023 @ 4:30 pm

Experience the thunder of cannon fire, musket volleys and cavalry charge as The Sealed Knot help you relive history over the bank weekend. The grounds of Stanway House, with all its Cotswold beauty, create the backdrop for a day out like no other. Visit the interactive living history camp where you can immerse yourself in 17th century life and spot King Charles and his royal entourage. Meet the royalist soldiers in the siege camp sent to take the city for the king and see up close the weapons and drill used during England’s past.

 

The main event will be commemorating the siege of Gloucester 380 years on and bring parliament and royalist troops head-to-head in a spectacular 17th century battle display. Will you be cheering on the King and his royalist troops or give your support to the Parliamentarian men sent out by Edward Massey to help defend Gloucester?
