Nantwich Museum is running a new course focussed on the English Civil Wars following the success of an evening class last year.
Entitled “The Civil Wars in Cheshire”, the five-week course takes place on Thursday evenings between October 4 and November 1.
It aims to provide an understanding of the local war.
Course tutor Dr Keith Lawrence will cover the arrival of the war in Cheshire in 1642, and the lead up to the Siege of Nantwich.
It will also study the campaign of the ‘Irish Royalist Army’ in 1643, the Barthomley Massacre of December 1643, the Siege and 1644 Battle of Nantwich, and finally the Siege of Chester and Sir William Brereton’s search for support.
The cost is £50, which includes course materials and refreshments.
Early booking is recommended.
