Travel back in time and wander through the living Anglo Saxon renactment camp for combat displays, traditional textiles and blacksmithing, medicine and cooking demonstrations, and try your hand at axe throwing to see if you have what it takes to be an Anglo Saxon warrior for the kingdom of Essex!
Spend some time in the tent of tales for some lively, traditional storytelling, a popular Anglo Saxon pastime, proving that good stories are truly timeless, before exploring the weekend's other family friendly activities around the grounds including games and face painting.
Unearth the secrets of Saxon Southend in the archaeology tent, hear how archaeologists discovered one of the most important Anglo Saxon finds ever made in Britain just outside the park, and get stuck in yourself (literally!) to see what you can find.
Pop inside the Priory to learn how the site transformed from the small Anglo Saxon settlement that founded what would eventually become Southend, to medieval monastery, then Victorian family home and finally into the museum of today.
Also check out other Arts events in Southend-on-Sea, Fine Arts events in Southend-on-Sea.
