We spent a couple of hours at Framlingham Castle (and we thank English Heritage for allowing us to use the Castle in this way) showing off our costumes in order to take some publicity shots. Mike Kwasniak took the photos. A selction of the photos is below. (Please note - the quality shown below is not representative of the original photos, which are obviously of a much higher quality).
