Bosworth Battlefield tells the story which changed the course of history in 1485, when two Kings, Richard III and Henry VII fought over the Crown of England, and Henry established the powerful Tudor dynasty. Visitors can experience what this famous turning point in British history really meant by exploring what it was like to fight in medieval battles, discover how the true location of the Battle of Bosworth was found or explore the Country Park and walk the Bosworth Trail.

🌟Volunteers Week 🌟

Our garden maintenance Volunteers are a new team that started this Spring. They are already making such a difference to the green spaces around the heritage centre and have exciting plans of areas to develop and make more nature and wildlife friendly. They are an enthusiastic, creative and hardworking bunch. 🌷👩‍🌾🐝🦋

Herb tubs have just been planted by the Tithe Barn cafe with information posters to show the types of herbs used in medieval cooking, they smell gorgeous! A new garden area for visiting schools has been cleared by our cabins with mosaic topped tree stump seats, with further plans to design and make tactile 'nature themed' displays for the fence, especially to help SEND pupils. We are already recycling materials as much as possible to make use for raised planters for this area and improve our green credentials.

Thank You Garden Team for everything you do. 👏👏👏

🌹 On Saturday 27 June join us to make a stunning Rose Pendant! 🌹

The pendant is 99.9% pure silver of hallmark quality made from a magical recycled material called Silver Clay.

You do not need any jewellery making experience. In this workshop, you will learn about silver clay and how to use it to make your pendant. We will then fire your pendant, which turns it into pure solid silver. You will then polish your piece and add some pearls before attaching it to an 18 inch chain so you can wear your beautiful jewellery home.

Your tutor will be Louise, an experienced jeweller, who will love helping you to enjoy this experience and your piece.

All materials included.

£40 per person, pre-booking essential. Book your ticket on our website.
