Society |
|
|
| If you are interested in this very
colourful character and the history of the area around his last battle, may I
suggest you join the Evesham based Simon de Montfort Society |
 |
The Lion Magazine, which comes out three times a year. Contains excellent researched articles on the
Evesham area, Churches and battle sites ,etc, plus details of all the
meeting dates and events.
Even if like me you cannot get to all these meets ,walks and talks the
magazine is well worth the annual subscription .

The Society also has a few small books, a
couple of which are
|
| The Lost Abbey of Evesham.
A history of the Abbey where Simon de Montfort is buried. |
 |
The Last hours of
Simon de Montfort
A new account of the last hours, with maps of the battlefield |
 |
|
Both I recommend, great reference material.
