Seige of Basing House

The Sealed Knot society came to Old Basing today to do a re-enactment of the Siege of Basing House. The whole story was told over three days, so we went along for the last day in what proved to be an absolutely astonishing re-enactment with Sealed Knot members coming in from all over the country.
