Kragfergus Living History Group


Sewing Class


     Sewing classes continue in Dobbin's Inn.  Nuala Magure helps with Derek's cloak.  Surprising how easy she makes it all.  Be nice to see some garments being completed over the next few weeks.

Once again, we'd like to thank Dobbin's Inn for the use of The Thomas Seeds room

Knights Of The Krag


Sword Skills


     Back in The Banqueting Hall today for 2 hours training.  Derek plus 4 other members took part.  Matthew got into costume and he and Judith practised with steel bladed swords instead of training swords.  Nice to hear the clink of steel echoing through The Castle
