Battle of Worcester 1651


Today is the anniversary of this the final battle of the English Civil Wars. Charles II's Scottish army was beaten by the Parliamentarians. Wiki on Battle of Worcester. The above link has photos of the battlefield that are worth looking at, and this link will take you to the Fairfax Battalia's webpage - Fairfaxes are probably the best English Civil War reenactment group going in my humble opinion, but I am biased having once, long ago, been a member. Buy the print by Chris Collingwood here.
