There will be a 17th Century battle re-enactment, skarvage, period cooking, and you can learn about period clothing, herbs and their medicinal uses, weapons and battle strategies. The Sealed Knot helps bring history alive every year at period houses throughout the country, and you can talk to major historical figures, try out a few recipes, learn about the life of a soldier on the march and maybe even "take the King's shilling". What better way to teach children about the period than with a little "hands-on" experience. Times: Saturday 20 September 10am-5.00pm, Sunday 21 September 1pm-5pm.
