Witches and Wizards
Nicodemus is an apothecary, meaning people come to him in search of remedy for all manner of ails!
It's his wife, Ursula, that does most of the work though, and it is this work that will take your guests on a journey to the medieval world of the supernatural.
In the early days of science, all is not as it seems to be. Welcome to a time where science, medicine, religion and magic all blend in to one.
It may be a cure that you need, or possibly protection. Learn different skills and ways to apply magic, how to cure yourself, and how to protect yourself from sinister forces.
From the ingenius to the down right bonkers, you may think twice before you ask for a doctor!
The Shows
As well as visitor engagement and games, as part of our Medieval Event Days we provide several 30 minute shows throughout each day. Each show covers something different about social history, technology and innovation in the time of the Middle Ages and is designed to get the audience involved and feel like they are part of the story.
Some of the shows might include:
What ails thee? If you fall ill in the Middle Ages then your options are limited. If you have money to your name then you can afford to pay for the services of physicians and apothecarys, other wise you may have to rely on local knoweldge of herbs. Either way, the cures for your ailment might... not quite be what you were expecting. One thing is for sure, people in the Middle Ages must have had strong stomachs! Discover the ingenius and downright bonkers cures from 500 years ago!
Don't just hear. Be part of the story as we learn of the tale of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Aspiring knights are likely to have scornful fathers who think they should be reading Latin and Greek classics. The Arthurian legends are so powerful though that many that it is these stories, full of magic, treachery, bravery and adventure, that will captivate and inspire minds throughout the Middle Ages.
The Middle Ages is a time of changing ideas. It is a time where the ideas about magic and the supernatural are being fleshed out. What is acceptable practice? What isn't? What is possible and what is not? Most importantly, what do you need to do to protect yourself from sinister forces?

The Games
For many visitors it is the games that we provide that are the highlight. Our games are all Medieval games that transport players back in time. We fill our Games Arena with many different games, that are relevant to the period, that visitors can play at their leisure and return as much as they want.
Our Games Arena gives visitors something to enjoy from the moment the gates open to the end of the day. Some games are simple, others have more intricate rules, and this spread means that there is something for all.
