Welcome to all Lords & Ladies, Free Men & Peasants

We are The House Of The Black Star.

Based at Whittington Castle on the border of England and Wales. We serve under the banner of the Black Star, House of Fitzwarren, protectors to the Fitzwarren family. 

  It is our duty to protect the sacred English ground, against the accursed Welsh who have regularly marauded, stealing sheep and women of equal value.

           We are a medieval re-enactment society covering Historical period of 1240 to 1350 and it is our primary goal to provide accurate combat displays as well as a glimpse into the life of a medieval household. We operate from Whittington castle, found on the Shropshire Borders, between Oswestry and Llangollen. Whittington castle is steeped in myth and Legend and is believed to be the only castle in the UK that is community run. 

   The House of the Black Star regularly gives demonstrations of life and death at Whittington Castle throughout the summer months. 

They are also available for hire be it a Wedding, Fete, Fair or School
