Newton Rebels 1607 :: Home

A local community history group has been formed, The Newton Rebels, to raise awareness of what happened 400 years ago, to place it in its historical context nationally and locally, to develop a lasting memorial, and to help preserve what remains of the Tresham's dovecote, which is all that remains of their manor house at Newton.

Thanks to funds raised during the pageant and the other events in 2007, and also funds raised very kindly by the Riddells in Newton who held a tea party in aid of the Rebels, a memorial stone, suitably renovated now, and a historical interpretation board are now in place outside Newton church.
