    Our camp

    We provided a small camp set against the backdrop of the 500 year old merchants house,split between our medieval kitchen display,with a variety of delicious pottages prepared, accompanied by freshly made butter and (slightly singed) bread straight from the oven, and our arms and armour collection, with timed talks describing the armour and equipment of the medieval soldier.
