Say you have been at Worcester, where England's sorrows began, and where they are happily ended (Hugh Peters)

The Battle of Worcester on 3 September 1651 was the final battle of the English Civil War.  The Fairfax Battalia was a partner in the commemoration events   with Worcester City Council,  organising the main  re-enactment staged  at the Commandery Civil War Centre.  This comprised a re-creation of the part of the battle that took place at For Royal (along with Crawford's Battalia and the Oxford Company from ECWS), and a living History at the Commandery itself.   The latter took over some of the static displays to provide a unique re-creation of the building as it might have been 350 years ago.  

Over the coming weeks we will illustrate some of the activities that took place over the weekend.
