Last week I received the publicity for "Yorkshire's Greatest Living History Festival" 30/31 July at Sledmere House.

This event has grown out of a small event Comitatus did there back in 2009. This is certainly now the major multi period event in the north of England north of Sheffield, and promises to be larger this year.
There will be Knights doing their medieval thing, 17th century English Civil War battles, plus late Romans. We'll be bringing our horses and generally enjoying the excellent venue.
Sledmere House & Estate are just 7 miles northwest of Driffield, a scenic 25 mile drive from York, 19 miles from Scarborough and just 10 miles from Beverley. It lies on the B1253 where it meets the B1252, north of the main York-Bridlington road.
