31st July Meeting

July’s talk is by Simon Marsh of the Battlefields Trust. Simon has published detailed research into the artillery train of the Earl of Essex, and his book “The Trayne of Artillery 1642-1646: Ordnance and associated capabilities of English armies during the First Civil War” will be published by Helion in December this year. Simon’s research into this often neglected aspect of the Civil Wars enables him to give us a unique insight into its operations and effectiveness.

Talks are held at Delapre Abbey. Doors open about 7pm, with the meeting starting at 7:30pm. There is ample free parking on site. Entry is through the Orangerie Restaurant.
