Storyline

The year is 1549. You’re a local Wymondham woodturner. You also support your family by making use of the common pastures. But your quiet life is about to be disrupted by a summer you'll never forget.

Recent 'Enclosure Laws' mean gentry are claiming large swathes of common land, leaving you with nowhere to farm.

As we wander around Wymondham, we discover the story of Robert Kett. A man who led a protest against the Enclosure Laws and perhaps, helped catapult England into the modern era.
