WORCESTER has taken on a bold new look as a major public art project commemorating the English Civil War reaches its first milestone.
A set of 15 hand-painted ‘trial run’ historical banners are being displayed along Copenhagen Street in the city, celebrating Worcester’s role in the national civil war conflict between 1642 and 1651.
To further mark Worcester’s Civil War legacy, a commemorative parade and drumhead service, organised by the Sealed Knot and The Battle of Worcester Society took place last Saturday (August 23).
Some 100 17th-century reenactors took part in the event, bringing the streets of Worcester to life.
