For the knights of old it was not enough to be skilled in jousting and sword fighting, it was also necessary to master the art of archery on horseback and so The Knights of Middle England also offer Horse Archery tuition.

Taught by qualified archery instructors and available in both group and private sessions, you will first learn to use your bow from the ground learning to nock and shoot your arrows using the special thumb draw technique. Then mount one of our specially trained horses and practise nocking on the move as you ride down the archery run unleashing your arrows upon the targets.

This is a 1.5hour session in groups of 3 people.
