Last Stand at Graveney Marsh
Wizzo's Rip-Roaring History

The last pitched battle on British soil? The bloody fields of Sedgemoor in 1685? The Jacobite cause undone at Culloden in 1746? How about the Battle of Barking Creek? A crashed German bomber crew fancy their chances and shoot it out with the British army in the summer of 1940? Wizzo takes a look at this extraordinary field of battle that starts on the marsh, and ends down the local pub!
