Experience vivid displays of daily life in a medieval encampment from living history group "The Company of Chivalry".
Displays will include medieval cookery, archery, crafts and trades, with authentic 14th century items for you to buy, including medieval coins. See what life was like 700 years ago in the turbulent 14th century when Winterbourne Barn was built (1342), in an age where the Lord of the Manor ruled and ordinary people had little freedom and few possessions.Re-enactments of medieval military combat will take place including common soldiers, fighting knights and displays of medieval canon. Children can join the ‘Knights School’ and gain a certificate. And everyone can celebrate the birthday of St Anthony who is the patron saint of lost items, by taking part in a treasure hunt in and around the medieval barn. Come along and cheer for your favourite knight in battle, or simply relax in the Barn and listen to a talk or medieval music from the minstrels!
There will be plenty of things to do for all ages - stalls, activities, information and demonstrations - and delicious local food and drink available to buy.
Entrance Adults £2.50, children under 16 yrs free. Well-behaved dogs on a lead are welcome.
