As a registered charity we are required to hold an Annual General Meeting. This is the formal meeting for members only, however guests are welcome to join in for the talk, which will start at about 8:15 pm.
If you enjoyed the talk on Longbow vs Crossbow, you will relish this brief look at the heavy artillery of the Middle Ages: Siege Engines and other military machinery, from trebuchet to tumbrils, ballistae to beehives, and more.
Location: Evesham Baptist Church, Offenham Rd, Evesham WR11 3DY
