Success at Stow
13 April 2011
More than a hundred people crammed into St Edmund's Hall on Tuesday 5 April to hear about the battle of Stow on the Wold and the proposed project to find out where the action actually took place. Five days later the Battlefields Trust's Simon Marsh was joined by nearly fifty people on a walk around the area of the fighting. The precise location of the 1646 battle, which saw the defeat of the last Royalist field army in England, has been the subject of some debate. The Trust is working with the Stow Civic Society, who organised the St Edmunds Hall event, to develop and raise money for a project to find out once and for all. The huge turnout is evidence of just how much interest there is in the battle and there are plans to repeat the Tuesday event to enable more people to hear about it.
