Battle Walk 

 

Greenhill battlefield
The entrance to the Greenhill battlefield is a single track lane between a couple of houses.
Here is a small group of us on an organized battlefield walk, lead by Tony Spicer. These Society walks are excellent and personally recommend them to everyone how ever much you know or don't know about Simon de Montfort.

Past these gates you are on private land, leased to the Society, so please have you Simon de Montfort Society membership card handy.

There is lots of work to be done on this site and the Society is grateful for the hours of hard work  members have given. There are some exciting times ahead, careful examination of the area to see if there are any battle remains or perhaps the famous well.

Here are a few general shots of the area. If you look at the Map you will see the relationship of the various place names connected with the battle.

Yes, I know it looks like any other field in these shots, but a very important field in English history.

Getting these acres is a wonderful success for the Society , we are a small society and the finical cost is great. So please if you are not a member, join, and help preserve this area for future generations.
This plaque can be found in the House of Representatives in Washington D.C. 

I believe the field is an important part in world history and the formation of free government every where.
