Arundel Castle in West Sussex is set to become the scene of a medieval raid this late May bank holiday, 25-27 May, when a brand-new event will take the Castle by storm: Raiders of the 15thCentury: England vs. France. 

Set over three days in the summer half-term, Raiders of the 15th Century: England vs. France will recreate the era following the Wars of the Roses when French raiding parties began to ransack England’s south coast. The French were acting in retaliation – King Edward IV had hatched a plan to invade France and lay claim to its throne.
