Prince Maurice’s Invasion of Devon 1643
Philip Photiou (author)
The talk covers the royalist invasion of Devon in 1643, when Prince Maurice’s army invaded Exeter, Dartmouth, and towns in North Devon, and the ensuing siege of Plymouth in the winter of that year. Cannon positions at Mount Stamford were unsuccessful in stopping ships entering Plymouth Sound. Various attacks by the Royalist troops were repulsed and the siege was lifted by the end of the year.
