• The Beaufort companye is one of the more authentic re-enactment groups for the period 1450–1500. The end of the middle ages and the coming of the tudor age.

• Our aim is to reconstruct and re-enact late medieval life, recreating the period known as ‘The Wars of the Roses’. whether as gentry, servants and tenants, or as soldiers, recreating sieges, battles, and day to day events.

• We pride ourselves on our authenticity and professional attitude to the portrayal of late 15th century life, providing events that are educational, informative and entertaining to the public.

• as well as fun to take part in and watch.
