Living History
Although the warriors may grab the initial attention with their clamour and bravado, the village is the most significant part of any re-enactment. It is where the public spend most of their time. It is also where the greatest amount of contact between the public and the re-enactors occurs.
The Village
The village can be any size from a single tent to a small town, but this is where we re-enact the important tasks that provide the basic requirements of everyday life take place. From making and repairing clothes, weaving, cooking, woodworking, leather working, sleeping, eating and drinking. These are all necessary activities of everyday life in the Viking period and can be undertaken in the village.
Our members will readily pose for photographs with anyone who asks, and the warriors may even let you try out a sword or spear or feel just how heavy our mail and helmets are.
