Step back in time with Laoch Living History and find out what it was like to be a 17th century soldier under the forbidding gaze of a Drill Sergeant. You may have an opportunity to come face to face with the musketeer, artillery gunner, pikemen, halberdiers, barber-surgeons, blacksmiths, gunners, sutlers, monks, and soldiers from all over 17th Century Europe. Who knows! Come along for the surprise.


And there is more! At 2pm join costumed historian Tóla Collier for a battlefield walk. Find out about the tactics, strategy, geography, and personalities on the battlefield. (Meeting Point for battlefield walk: front of Oldbridge House)
