General Questions

Do we need to know a lot about the civil war?
No. You will pick up the basics as you go along, and hopefully the English Civil War period will grab your interest and you will start reading and studying the period.

Though we do welcome members who do know or have an interest in the period we are portraying.

'Who looks after the Equipment?
The Regiment has a quartermaster who looks after and catalogues all the equipment the regiment owns. Once a year there is a "make & Mend" event where we all get together to repair and make new kit for the coming season.

All of this kit is transported by a few members and is stored in the white 6m x 4m equipment tent at events.
