This day commemorates the final battle of the English Civil War, which took place in Worcester, on its 375th anniversary. On 3 September 1651, the Parliamentarian army clashed with the Royalists, causing King Charles II to flee the city as Cromwell came out on top – for a time.
The Commandery was Royalist Headquarters during the battle and has plenty of stories to tell.
The Last Battle on Saturday 5 September is part of a series of events commemorating the battle’s 375th year.
