Description:A mediaeval knight at the Pageant. Stafford Millenary Pageant was to mark 1000 years since Aethelflaed, daughter of King Alfred the Great, established the Burh of Stafford. The town became a frontier post in the Anglo-Saxon's struggle against the Viking hordes, forming a part of a chain of such timber fortresses including Tamworth and Chester.
