DAYS OUT<br />

Newark & Sherwood District Council<br />

A summer of fun for all the family can be had at<br />

attractions in Newark over the summer holidays.<br />

Newark was besieged<br />

three times during the<br />

British Civil Wars. So,<br />

join us for a summer of<br />

siege activities at the<br />

National Civil War Centre<br />

from Saturday July 23<br />

all the way until Sunday<br />

September 4.<br />

Daisy and bubbles<br />

Make your own diamond<br />

shaped siege coins, make a<br />

siege helmet or try your hand<br />

at writing coded messages to<br />

smuggle in or out of Newark.<br />

Why not build your own<br />

‘Sconce’ fort to take home<br />

or make your own flying<br />

bomb and make sure you<br />

protect yourself from deadly<br />

infectious diseases with a<br />

homemade plague mask.<br />

In our public performances<br />

come and hear about some<br />

of the Civil War’s famous<br />

besieged women and how<br />

Prince Rupert rescued Newark<br />

during the second siege. All<br />

events are free with standard<br />

admission charges. For<br />

more information visit www.<br />
