Past Events | | 
| <<< Belvoir Castle : 23rd-25th August 2008 Bank Holiday Major. Sunny weekend, great location, huge site and a great beer tent to get drunk and party in.

| <<< Shugborough House : 14-15th July 2007 The wettest multi-period major weekend in SK history - at a charming NT Property. At least it was dry for the battles and for Barrie's fancy dress party (!!) |
Althorpe House : 5 - 7th June 2007>>> Pleasant sunny weekend hosted by Ruperts, with barbecue and support from Tilliers (again)(we must stop meeting like this). Wet long walk to the pub, for those who made it, even longer even wetter even more uncomfortable walk back for those who didnt.
Inspected by The Earl who also flogged us his book! |  | | 
| <<< Berkeley Castle, Glos. : 26th-28th May 2007 Wet and Dull, but still a spectacular Battle location in original Castle grounds |
Basing House :7 - 9th April 2007 >>> Sunny day, olde-worlde location. Hot march from the pub, uphill battle on the old site, then march back to the pub. Some injuries here - too enthusiastic? |  |
|  | <<< Cheriton : 23rd March 2007 A cold wet windy weekend in March hosted by Tilliers .. a long long, long walk to the skirmish on the Saturday followed by pub, fireworks & BeerTent - with a great band.
A Much Shorter Walk to a Sunday service overlooking the battlefield (with free wine & cake) on Sunday morning and a much shorter skirmish in the afternoon with Tilliers (after photos and some drill practice) |

Lovely day, Lovely weather, Lovely setting and lots of fine frocks - and that was just the guys.. |  |
 | <<< Southwell : 27 -28th August 2006 Major battle set on the Southwell racecourse. Miles from the town, a campsite as packed as a refugee camp, and distinctly dubious 'beer-tent' in 'the bar'. But the weather was great and the battles magnificent ! We had to lie down at the end as there was no-one left to fight us and we had taken the field !!! - ( & we were supposed to lose ). |
| Spetchley Park: 5 - 6th August 2006 >>> Major battle set in the grounds of a large stately home. Great weather, great turn-out, great camp site, great beer-tent, and great band. Pity there wasnt much of an audience - and as 'Scots' we all got slaughtered at the end ! | 
|
| 
| <<< Ringwood, Hampshire 8-9th July 2006 Interesting town, though dubious campsite. Pub lunch, march through town then good battle. For a movie of the march - see here |
| Wetherby,Yorkshire 28-29 May 2006 >>>> A Huge Major, with a cast of thousands! Nice location, great weather, long, long march from camp to battlefield but great campsite & great beer-tent. Wetherby town was close and nice too!! |  |
