Elvaston Castle

We were back at Elvaston Castle for the bank holiday at the end of May.

Aethelfleda's reeve was in attendance to hear a number of legal disputes, but when the vikings showed up and started demanding money, you just knew there was going to be trouble.

We also have photos from Elvaston 2004
