Battle of Edgcote 1469

Sunday 10th May 2015


Harvey Watson will be leading a 3-4 mile (approx) guided walk across the site of one of the least famous - but most pivotal battles in the Wars of the Roses. We will start at 1.30 pm from the Chipping Warden Parish Church, Chipping Warden, Banbury, Oxfordshire, OX17 1JZ (thus allowing for an optional spot of lunch at the pub beforehand).

 

The battle site is currently threatened by the proposed High Speed Rail link, so this is an opportunity to view this beautiful valley in it's current state. The route will be a mixture of roads, footpaths and fields so bring suitable footwear, and a rainjacket in case of inclement weather. Contact Harvey Watson on 01494 257847 for further details.
