History Squad joins the House of Bayard at Bosworth Battlefield for a rare and extraordinary living history demonstration — tracing the complete development of medieval gunpowder technology, from its origins in 9th century China to the siege artillery that transformed European warfare in the 15th century.
Presented by historical re-enactment specialists the House of Bayard, this educational demonstration explores how early firearms evolved over two centuries — and why the high medieval castle wall became obsolete almost overnight.
"Have a care!" This video contains historical firearms demonstrations carried out by trained and experienced living history professionals in a controlled outdoor environment.
