The Trayned Bandes combine professionalism and authenticity in our presentation of 17th century military and civilian life. We have worked with the Battlefields Trust, Burton Agnes Hall, English Heritage, Historic Royal Palaces, Saint Mary's Church (Putney), TileFilms, and other clients to ensure displays and demonstrations meet their needs and our own high standards.
Contact us if your organisation is interested in working with us for a living history event or production.
Our Friends
The Trayned Bandes cooperates with like-minded organisations to span more than 250 years of living history.
Do you want to play the part of a souldier or civilian during the pivotal period of the British Civil Wars? You do not need to be a student of the times to join the Trayned Bandes. The goal is enjoyment and camaraderie and full training is provided for drill, arms handling, and period background.
Contact us for details about membership or speak with a member during one of our events.
