As a new member, we understand that you may be unable to come fully 'kitted out' in appropriate clothing to your first events. We recommend that you contact a committee member, before an event, so we can arrange for the use of spare kit. As we have made and purchased this kit specifically for new members, there is a small fee associated with its use. As you can imagine spare kit can be at a premium, so we expect our new members to arrange their own kit as soon as they can.

Anachronism means something that is out of place historically i.e. a digital watch in the medieval period. As a group, we try to avoid anachronisms during our display time, to help with this please remember to: -

  • Remove your watch.
  • Put in contacts, or just remove your glasses (although rare, medieval glasses can be made if you are desperate).glasses.bmp
  • Take out modern earrings and remove your jewellery.
  • Cover any tattoos.
  • Don't smoke in view of the public.
  • Don’t use cameras, phones or any other electronic device.
  • Ask before you use anything you are not sure of.
  • Remember modern food should be consumed in private.
  • Use leather thonging or linen braiding to tie back your hair, which is generaly kept covered.
