The Battle of Hopton Heath Memorial Stone

On Saturday the 7th March and Sunday 22nd March we will be doing some charity filming work for the West Midlands Branch of the Military Historical Society (WMMHS) and The Hopton Heath Battlefield Memorial Project.

This is to help them promote their fund raising for the erection of a memorial stone and interpretation panel on the site of an historic Staffordshire battle. On both occasions a large group of Sealed Knot re-enactors in period costume/uniform will be in attendance.

We filmed the Sealed Knot in Stafford last Saturday and the BBC will be showing some of our video footage  during the early evening BBC West Midlands News on the 19th March 2009. The videos will be within a piece about the forth coming Hopton Heath Battlefield Memorial Stone unveiling ceremony.

The ceremony itself will be on Sunday the 22nd March 2009 in Hopton in Staffordshire – why not come along if you are interested in English history or the English Civil War. A large group of Sealed Knot re-enactors in period costume/uniform will be in attendance. See our other piece about the ceremony for more detail.
