many years. The original Household concentrated on the military
aspects of the period 1460-190 but in recent years the scope of the group has widened to include full living history, mummers and school lectures.
One of the aims of Thomas Stanley's is to pour water on the idea that re-enactment precludes military prowess and to this end the group trains regularly in order to be able fight competently and safely.
The Retinue is made up from people from all walks of life and boasts

Regia Anglorum - Anglo Saxon, Viking, Norman and British Living History
| Regia Anglorum was a term used by early English writers to describe the English state. It means 'The Kingdoms of the English'. In a twentieth century context Regia Anglorum is a nationwide society with many independent local groups, from Scotland to the south coast, who all work within a tight set of common sense rules. Regia Anglorum attempts to recreate a cross section of English life around the turn of the first millennium. Our actual self imposed brief is AD950 - 1066, although our events may sometimes be set a few decades either side of these dates. It was a time of great flux and change and, as all our public shows are 'datelined', we can demonstrate the changing fashions of the times. It was a time when Britain was host to many peoples - Anglo-Saxons, Anglo-Danes, Norse, Cymru, Viking raiders and even a number of Norman mercenaries . We are not purely a combat society and have come a long way from the old hack and bash image associated with many re-enactment societies. We are not in fact a 're-enactment' society, but a 'living history society'. Our basic tenet is Authenticity. To this end we will not portray any image, support any ideal, or make any item of kit which we cannot provenance from contemporary sources. Our members invest large sums of money and thousands of man hours getting it right. From our experiences with other superficially similar societies, we are certain that no other society from our period of interest takes this matter so seriously.
