The battlefields of Edgehill, Newbury and Marston Moor are
superlatives with the middle of the 17th-century conflict known as
the English Civil War, and whilst their importance to the conflict
is undeniable, they detract from the power struggle that occurred
between the Royalists and Parliamentarians in the towns and cities
throughout the land. This power struggle culminated in the
construction of siege batteries and fortifications. Focusing on the
Severn Valley region of England, this book examines, through
archaeological, topographic, cartographic and historical research,
the sieges of Bristol, Gloucester, Worcester, Bridgnorth and
Shrewsbury, demonstrating how siege techniques and this style of
warfare impacted on the outcome of the conflict that set brother
against brother and father against son.
