A fine spot for a 3 day medieval history fest at Pendennis Castle Come along and see a joust, living history, falconry, jesters and so much more!
The unfortunate positioning of this photograph makes it seem like one of our young members came off rather badly in his archery shoot! ๐
We had a wonderful time at Somerset Armed Forces Day! What a remarkable community, multi-period, fun-filled day out! We were very grateful to be able to display and discuss the arms and armour of the 15th century.
Setting up camp at Somerset Armed Forces Day Come along to this free all day event and say Hi!
We are very excited to be heading to Somerset Armed Forces Day on Saturday 1st July! It is a FREE community event to show your support for, and celebrate, the people who make up the Armed Forces and Emergency Services communities: from those still serving, their families, veterans and cadets. There will be historic encampments from across the centuries as well as the Red Arrows, plenty of food vendors and stalls too.
This feels like the right kind of weather to be putting on the woolen trousers, padded jacks and metal helms! Or is that just me?
