Hammonds Regiment of Foote

It is with regret that our large event at Great Tew over the August bank holiday weekend has been cancelled. This is a decision taken by our board of directors, given the recent government alert, the risk of wild fires, and the safety of the public and our members. We are all upset that the event cannot go ahead, but fully support the reasons for the decision being made. If you were hoping to see us at Great Tew we appreciate your interest and please keep following this page for future events. As always, we are always looking for new members to our regiment so why not consider joining us in 2027. The events calendar for next year is already looking good with a potential amazing location for next August.

Some of our members will be visiting Memingham in Germany in a few days time, joining up with our friends in the Pikeniere. Have a great time all those that are going. However, you don't need to travel that far to get involved with our family friendly regiment. We will be spending the August Bank Holiday weekend at Great Tew in Oxfordshire; apparently David and Victoria Beckham have a house there; and you can join us for the weekend, meet our members, have a go at pike or musket (dummy musket can be provided), or just see what we're all about. Temporary membership applications for the weekend will be closing soon, but there's still time to join us for a great weekend.

Our next outing will be to The Cotswolds in Oxfordshire for the August Bank Holiday weekend. With lots to see and do on the Sunday and Monday, why not visit us, along with the rest of the Army of Parliament, and those pesky Royalists, or as I call them, target practice. A great day out for the whole family!

More fun on the Hammonds campsite over the May Bank Holiday with apologies to my daughter Callie :)

A very hot but enjoyable weekend was had by all at the Colchester Living History Festival over the bank holiday weekend. With large numbers of the public attending to watch us in action, I think somewhere around 5000 spectators over the two days, we had a great time. We are always looking for new members to join our ranks, and with temporary memberships available to allow you to attend one event to see if you enjoy it, half year membership from July, and another bank holiday major event in August why not contact us now to find out what we can offer you in this great hobby.

Who is coming to see us at Deane Park, Corby for the Sealed Knot Early May bank holiday event? It’s a chance to experience history in a way viewing it on a screen really can’t match. You will smell the campfires and gunpowder smoke (try doing that with a smart phone), you can talk to reenactors, handle artifacts and generally have a really personal and involving experience.

Battle reenactment’s are on the Sunday and Monday.

Today is International Women's Day and as a society, and within our regiment we welcome ladies to join us on the battle field, as well as in a non combatant role. Women are welcome to take up the pike or musket and fight alongside their male counterparts and be treated as equals. With an exciting season ahead, and some great venues why not consider joining us, making new friends, and discovering a wonderful new hobby. Feel free to message for further information. PS, you are welcome to bring your husband or boyfriend :)
