Hi, I have always been interested in reenactment. I live in the North East (Newcastle area) and wonder if you can tell me about groups in this area? Thanks so much for your replies

Durham Light Infantry, the Napoleonic 68th regiment of foot are not so far away. A very good group (I'm not a member, just a fan).

I would agree with Wurzul, the 68th are a very good Napoleonic group.
Gordon Highlanders http://www.gordonhighlanders1914-18.co.uk/ a WWI group with the majority of the members in the North of England and Scotland with events all around that area, going to be in a trench at http://www.ywe-event.info/ over the weekend of 23-24 June

We do 1850s/60s just as a small display and also belong to the Warwicks 1914-1918 LH group, we're based all over. I'm in East Yorks.

Best of Times Worst of Times are based in the NE (Redcar/Middlesbrough area) - they do Elizabethan, Napoleonic and onwards through the 19thC. You just missed them last month at the Bede's World, Jarrow event.....

I am not a member of the 68th, but I can vouch that the 68th are a well respected, high quality group with a solid core of members in the North East. They also do some 18th Century interpretation of Lambton's Regiment.
