The Siege of Abbotsbury


Dorset local Stephen Green looks at the effect the English Civil War had on his area, and some new figures by Dorset Soldiers which represent the conflict

Most of my information for this article comes from: ‘Dorset in the Civil War’ by Tim Goodwin; A leaflet, ‘A brief history of St Nicholas Church, Abbotsbury’; ‘The Sydenham Trail’, an excellent article found on the web; and uniform detail from a book on the English Civil War by Philip Haythornthwaite, as well as various Osprey titles.

No great battles were fought in Dorset during the English Civil War, but nonetheless, the county had a very busy time with several major sieges.
