Knights prepare to do battle for a fair damsel at town’s Mediaeval Fayre
The town’s Chamber of Commerce is busy with final arrangements and in the secrecy of a local garden, four of their number are busy rehearsing a new addition to the Fayre – Battle’s very own fighting knights who will be taking up arms against each other in a fight over a damsel in distress.
The president of the Chamber is one of the noble knights, with a past president being in the opposing duo.
