I grew up right next to Kentwell, I walked my dog there everyday. I remember going there as a Tudor child, I had to 'dress' up and talk as a Tudor. I played with a wooden cup and ball. I also remember very rowdy nights at The Hare as a teenager!
I love this video! I'm a re-enactor at Kentwell too, it's funny to see myself on the video-didn't even notice it being done! It definitely does capure the place well, good work!
A comment placed on one of my 2005 Kentwell Films says that everybody is unpaid, and that they make their own costumes .... if that is true , then the "actors" are to be congratulated , as they are really magnificent , in bringing the past to life on one of Kentwell Halls Recreation Days .
@yourmumisadick I stayed there for about a week working as one of the maids in the house, and i loved every bit of it, although your not paid you have so much fun and i had a friend make the costume because im awful at it. but its so much fun in the evenings!
Please pass on my thanks to the many 'Tudors' who took part, they were all magnificent! I hope that the weather has not been too unkind to you all over the past few weeks.
Also nice to see some of the faces in the 2005 films , reappearing in this years 2007 reconstruction.

Hello, we aren't paid and yes, we make our own costumes. It's interesting and fun and you learn new skills..or rather old skills that are forgotten.
