The Vikings of Middle England

The Vikings are back at Cromford Mills! Experience what life was like over 1,000 years ago with Viking camps, demonstrations, weapons display, battle skirmishes and family activities.

This event is free to watch in the grounds of Cromford Mills.

With over 25 years of experience, Vikings of Middle England are able to offer a wide selection of complimentary services to bring to a re-enactment event, whether we are the main attraction at an historical event, or part of a larger show.

They have an extensive and varied Living History Display which can include everything from the small tented encampment of the roving war band, to a more extensive “Village” incorporating our many crafts displays, have-a-go activities and information points, or even a full-size stockade, where its defenders are awaiting the onslaught of the forthcoming siege.

They are most famous for their frighteningly realistic, exciting and entertaining combat displays: the thunderous clash of steel as opposing forces meet, war cries mingling with the screams of the dying, the visual effect is visceral and stunning!
