Thank you!

A huge thank you to everyone who made this year's medieval festival such a huge success. Everything went really well, with no major problems.

Our new Bright Knight Learning Zone was very popular and ideas are already being floated for extending it, and the specially brewed Tewkesbury Festivale went down well with everyone who tried it.

Re-enactors are already disecting every details of the battle, which was, once again won by the Yorkists.

Apologies to everyone who stood in the rain in the hope of seeing the storming of the abbey and the beheadings, it was postponed on safety grounds

Thanks to the vicar for setting up impromptu Abbey tours for the waiting public.

Next year's festival takes place on July 10 and 11 - see you there.

Helmcam!

We've been featured on BBC Gloucestershire, with an interview from Graham Field and an interesting viewpoint at the battle.
