The Brawl of 1258: Laverstock vs. Milford

The Brawl of 1258: Laverstock vs. Milford

Laverstock & Ford History Group host a talk by Bryan Evans on 25 September 2025, from 14:00 to 16:00, titled "Laverstock versus Milford 1258, A Brawl and Its Price." This commemorates a violent clash between men from Laverstock and neighbouring Milford.

Scheduled: 25 September 2025, 14:00 to 16:00

• The event reflects both local historical interest and community spirit—it’s a reminder that while we hope history doesn’t repeat itself on the football pitch with Laverstock & Ford FC meeting Salisbury FC, the stories from the past are still very much alive and fascinating.

• Venue and nature of the history group
  The Laverstock & Ford History Group holds talks at St Andrew’s Church (Curtis Room or church), offering engaging presentations followed by discussion over tea and biscuits.
