Join the Company of Blood and Gold for a day of learning and laughter as they provide a glimpse into the ordinary people of the medieval period. Spanning the 1300-1400s, they bring to life the clothing, armour and skills of knights, professionals, and craftspeople.

Explore the connections between archaeology and nature through talks and demonstrations on natural fibres, stonemasonry, medieval food and seasonings, medicine and more. Learn about how flax and sheep’s wool are turned into fabulous fabrics, what a Witchmark is and how it’s made, the flavours and ingredients of medieval cooking, how to play medieval board games, what the life and kit of a knight involves, and even how to extract an arrow from a person’s skull.
