Here's an illustrated report by Pete Harris on the European Historical Combat Guild's experiences at the TBS 'Medieval Yorkshire' event on August 1st 2011

My illustrated diary piece for the Battle of Towton 550th Anniversary event on Palm Sunday 2011

This item on my home town's links with the Wars of the Roses appeared in the February 2011 issue of Lincolnshire Life
