Re-Enactment Directory - Late Victorian and early 20th Century Re-enactment groups
Here at Clash of Steel, we strongly support the work of Re-enactors and Living History enthusiasts bringing life to history, learning what it might have been like to live as they did, and encouraging others to remember the past.
If you would like to suggest a group, send us the details. We'd love to hear about it.
The Diehard unit has a fifty strong membership and are members of the Victorian Military Society. Founded in 1993 they represent a number of images of the late Victorian Soldier, both on campaign and on home service.
The unit has regularly worked for many prestigious sponsors including English Heritage, The Royal Armouries, The National Army Museum and both South African and Maltese Tourist Boards and was awarded the Military Illustrated "Best of British Re-enactment Group" trophy in 1998.
