The Knights iof Avalon site is fantastic so go visit. Heres one of their John Hill knights in 54mm.
The battle of Chingford Mount was a battle in 1234 when Sir Humphrey Biddleford got the hump with a knight called De Classons and they had a pitched battle on the mount. It was more like a big pub brawl as there were only 500 combat soldiers in all. The pub "THE BIDDLEFORD ARMS" is one of the only remaining traces of the row(now called the kings head) that started over a bird.
De Classons had tried to nick Sir Humphrery's girlfriend.
You can refight the battle using 54mm soldiers like this one. The famous ploughmans lunch was also invented after this battle when de classons men stopped at a tavern called tavern ion the mount and were served cheese bread and pickles by a serf called bill the ploughman.chingford mount as it was in medieval times most likely. i hate people from around this area by the way
