Last week we were back at the Battlefield! Recreating a bit of 1403 history for a documentary programme next year. The photo has been edited to hide the appearance of the presenter until the filming is released on TV.

Thank you to those who were involved and helped bring a bit of early 15th century to life plus helping put the Battle of Shrewsbury on the map!
