An important reason for the weekend of events was the commemoration of those (thankfully few) who fell in the Siege of Bolingbroke Castle. This was the tribute attached to the wreath, laid by the Lord Generals of the English Civil War Society, as a fitting and poignant end to the weekend's activities. Many hundreds of visitors joined all the re-enactors present to watch the proceedings.
