The air at Newstead Abbey will be filled with the smell of gunpowder and the sound of firing muskets over the Bank Holiday weekend!
The Earl of Manchester’s Regiment of Foote will be joining The Sealed Knot for an epic English Civil War siege in the stunning grounds of Newstead Abbey and park near Nottingham – come and see the siege camps, with demonstrations of arts martial and civilian, plus huge battles on Sunday and Monday next to the ruins of the Augustinian priory, that was the ancestral home of Lord Byron.
Tickets are available on the day at £10 per person, which includes parking and entry to the Abbey House. Children under 16 go free, though other concessions are not available.
