Live on Stage | Bromyard and District Local History Society
The People of the of the Peasants Revolt!
In the summer of 1381, the first well documented popular rising in England shook the political foundations of a nation. A teenage king sought to deal with a populace pushed beyond what they cold tolerate. What sparked the Peasant's Revolt? Why is the name it has been given misleading? What can those wrapped up in the revolt, as rebels and victims, tell us about medieval England? The people of the Peasant's revolt are waiting to tell their stories.
