SUMMARY:St Neot's Living History Festival
DESCRIPTION:In the early hours of 9th July 1648 the Royalist forces under the Earl of Holland are taken by surprise by troops commanded by Parliamentarian Colonel Scrope\, having taken refuge in the town of St Neots. Hollands force were on the run having been heavily defeated at St Albans and were looking at regrouping and possibly consolidating their precarious position. \nAfter a viscous fight on the town Bridge the remainder of Hollands forces that had not fled ended up barricading themselves into a local Inn and then surrendered. \nColonel John Pickering’s Regiment and other members of the Sealed Knot will provide a Living History Camp\, displays and skirmish in St Neot’s Town Square to give an idea of what it might have been like on that fateful day. \nFor more details – https://www.stneotsmuseum.org.uk/whats-on/

SUMMARY:Cropredy Bridge 375

The King’s manoeuvring successfully relieved pressure on his capital at Oxford by leading the Parliamentary forces on a merry dance around the Cotswolds\, before delivering a blow that left these pursuing forces defeated and demoralised.

SUMMARY:Pontefract Castle
DESCRIPTION:During the Civil War\, Pontefract Castle was the site of no less than three bitter sieges. At the start of the second war\, John Morris\, and a few of his supporters\, snuck into the castle by pretending to bring in beds for the garrison. These Royalists then held the castle for nine months. However\, when the King was executed they had to surrender and Morris was executed for treason. \nThis June\, step back in time to the bloody 17th century\, and find out what life was like during that turbulent\, tumultuous time: brother against brother\, neighbour against neighbour – and a castle under attack! \nThe Earl of Manchesters Regiment of Foote will bring the experience of being besieged vividly to life. Be amazed by their explosive gun displays\, and marvel at the mighty siege engines. \nThis event is FREE\, and there is no need to book. Just come along and join in the fun! \nThink you’d make a fine Civil War soldier? Then you and your family can put yourselves to the test with our climbing wall – will you make it to the top? \nPontefract Castle – link

SUMMARY:Wentworth Woodhouse
DESCRIPTION:Wentworth Woodhouse is a Grade I listed stately home in South Yorkshire\, with the longest façade of any country house in England. It stands in 87 acres of gardens and grounds and has extensive views over former parkland\, including a deer park and lakes\, which are vested in the Fitzwilliam Wentworth Amenity Trust. \nHistorically it is significant for a number of reasons; however\, important to the Sealed Knot as it was the home of Charles I’s advisor and friend Thomas Wentworth\, 1st Earl Of Strafford\, whose execution at the behest of Parliament was a major factor in the build up to the outbreak of the Civil Wars. It was in the House’s Yellow Bedroom that Thomas learnt of his fate. He was executed on Tower Hill in London in May 1641. \nTake a more hands-on approach to history by seeing us in costume\, asking questions and handle some of our weapons and equipment. Learn about cookery\, clothes\, education and seventeenth century politics alongside strategies and tactics. \nSunday 5 & Monday 6 May \n10am-3pm (House open until 4pm) \nGo to https://wentworthwoodhouse.org.uk and link through to the Events page for tickets \nAddress – Wentworth Woodhouse\, Wentworth\, Rotherham\, S62 7TQ \nGo to https://www.newcastlesfoote.co.uk/ to find out more about the Sealed Knot Regiment hosting this event

SUMMARY:The Siege Of Basing House
DESCRIPTION:Basing House was one of the iconic sieges of the English Civil Wars. Basing was the home of the Marquis of Winchester\, a supporter of King Charles I. Parliamentary forces made three attempts to take Basing House\, with first two sieges being broken before it fell at the third attempt. \nThis Easter Bank Holiday experience the second of our 375th anniversary Basing House events presented by Col Stephen Hawkins Regiment. \nIt’s late summer of 1644\, following the ill-fated attack on Odiham the Basing garrison have been pursued by Colonel Richard Norton back to Basing House. The garrison now reduced to 175 men with little food and ammunition dangerously low. Norton’s men\, mortars and heavy artillery are once again besieging Basing House. With powerful Parliamentary garrisons in Abingdon\, Reading and Newbury and the Kings army in the west\, Basing was unlikely to be rescued. \nThe only hope is Colonel Gage’s relief column sent from Oxford which will have to covertly make the journey to Basing and defeat Norton’s troops to resupply the Garrison so enabling them to hold out until rescue by the Kings armies. \nSet against the evocative backdrop of the ruins of the House\, our living history camp (open Saturday\, Sunday\, Monday) provides an ‘up-close’ experience of aspects of military and civilian life during this turbulent period in our nation’s history. \nThen on Sunday and Monday at around 2.00pm experience the sight and sound of the battle to take Basing House! \nBook tickets to see this event here. \nBasing House – link

SUMMARY:375th Anniversary Battle Of Bude
DESCRIPTION:Sir Nicholas Slanning Hys Regiment of Foote will be camped on Bude Castle green on the Saturday and Sunday. \n  \nDepicting the Cornish Royalist forces prior to the advance out of the castle heading towards the village of Stratton. \n  \nThe Troops with Drums and Colours will march out of the Castle on Saturday 11:00\, over Nanny Moors Bridge.  At the time of the Civil Wars this was a natural fording point over the River Neet.  The night of the 14th of May 1643 a Royalist Advanced party engaged with the Parliamentary forces here in a brief skirmish securing the crossing point for the Royalist advance the next day. \nThe march will continue up onto Summerleeze Downs to stage an encounter and battle against the Parliamentary forces. \n  \nThis is to commemorate a battle in the Civil Wars\, The Battle for Stamford Hill\, Stratton. \n  \nThe Civil Wars of the mid seventeenth century were a reflection of a profound\, constitutional\, religious and social conflict which was expressed in a struggle for control between King and Parliament. \nOn 15 May 1643 a Parliamentarian army of 5\,600 men\, commanded by the Earl of Stamford\, advanced into Cornwall and camped upon the flat summit of Stamford Hill close to the town of Stratton.  The following day Sir Ralph Hopton\, with a Royalist force barely 3\,000 strong\, oved to attack the formidable Parliamentary position. \nThe battle raged inconclusively for several hours until Parliamentarian resistance finally collapsed as a determined attack by converging Royalist columns drew near the summit of the hill.  With casualties of 300 killed and 1\,700 taken prisoner\, almost half of Stamford’s army had been destroyed and the gateway to Devon was open to the Royalists.  Hopton’s victory\, gained by a force that was desperately short of food and ammunition\, was a remarkable achievement. \nThe Living History Camp will be open to the public 11-16:00.  On both days. \nIt is part of a wider Heritage Weekend and there will be other exhibitors and stalls on the Castle Green. \nThe military camp will be inhabited by officers\, soldiers and camp followers. \nThroughout the day\, on the hour\, we will be introducing the pike\, musket\, artillery and drums/colours.  Saturday only for the march and battle. \nThere will be an opportunity for the public to “Have a Go” at these different arms\, but not firing !!!
