No but I went to the Battle of Tewkesbury reenactment over the weekend. Do I win a prize? |

Fantastic link, Swampster – I heard about that game but hadn't seen a full set of pictures. A masterpiece! Re the original question, I have been to Towton battlefield but not on Palm Sunday (it often clashes with another event on the UK wargames calendar …).. Phil |

Its the one battlefield I'm determined to get to. I don't drive otherwise I'd have been there by now. Its got me thinking though. I've been to more battlefields in the good old USA than I have in the UK |

I have been twice. Towton is a cold windswept place at best on Palm Sunday. A nice day out but probably much the same each year. There is a small indoor section. |
