Abstract | This panel looks at the relationship between military and locality in Late Medieval England. Starting with a re-examination of the notorious 'Limoges' episode of the Black Prince's career, we then look at the wider issue of service patterns among English archers, especially how their civilian trades impacted upon local communities. In a similar vein, we learn about the response of maritime communities to royal naval policy as heard through the voices of the Ancient Petitions. Overall panel this is an examination of how warfare and locality interact at various levels. |
