Bringing history to life, this educational group, formed in 1986, are fascinated with the craft skills, technologies and everyday lives of past peoples. From their traditional-style tents, in full authentic costumes they will present their skills.
Explore the myths and truths of life in Medieval England with these colourful characters.
Peter the Lantern Maker - lighten your life - there were two main types of lantern, those with windows and those with a pattern of punched holes (thousand eye lanterns). The word lantern may have come from the two main materials used in its construction, that is latten (thin brass sheet) and horn for the windows.
Nicholas the Riveted Maille Maker - a link with the past and another and another! Made from drawn iron wire, shaped into rings and linked together to form mail, a very ancient form of body armour, though still in use in Tudor times.
 
 
Master Colin the Pewterer - holiday souvenirs (Holy-day souvenirs) - skillfully cutting his stone moulds. Using a small brazier, he melts and pours metal into stone and cuttle fish moulds to produce examples of pilgrim badges, livery badges, belt hangers, buckles and pins. His wife offers his wares for sale to the public.
Alys the Green Woman - worts & banes - herbs in medieval times had many uses - flavouring food, medicine, keeping away vermin, cleaning of clothes - the list is endless. Individuals either treated themselves with family recipes, visited travelling bonesetters and herb women or were helped by those in religious orders. Apothecaries purchased herbs and roots collected by wandering 'green men and women'.
*The Saxon Villagers may vary at each event
