Return of The Redcoats
The 18th Century will spring to life at Oakwell Hall in Birstall on Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 September when the Queen’s Anne Regiment set up a military camp on the rear lawn of the Hall.
Visitors to the Hall will be able to watch displays of military drills and weaponry, including the firing of muskets, during this ‘Return of the Redcoats’ Living History weekend.
Access to the camp and its demonstrations will be via the Hall and are included within the normal Hall admission prices of adult £3.50, child £1 and families £8. Tickets need to be purchased on the day from the Visitor Centre shop in the courtyard next to the car park at the top of Nova Lane.
This event, supported by the Friends of Oakwell, runs from 11am to 4pm both days.
