Step back 350 years and experience life on the road for soldiers and their families.
Over the Easter weekend Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st March– Colonel John Pickering and his Regiment of Foote take up residence in the Gardens.
Wander among the Parliamentary troops and their followers as they prepare for battle at Curdworth Bridge, near Water Orton.
Get into conversation with those who cooked the meals and sewed the cloth…
Let your imagination float back 300 years through the sound and smell of muskets and camp fire smoke…
Drills, musket practice and musters happen throughout the day.
Family Friendly (with some loud noises)
