The re-enactment of the Siege of Gloucester. The Siege of Gloucester took place between 10 August and 5 September 1643; it was a significant event during the English Civil. Had Parliamentarian Gloucester fallen to King Charles I and his besieging army the outcome of the war could have been very different. This re-enactment is taking place over this weekend as part of Gloucester's excellent two week Heritage Festival.
