Mark Cooper started his career as a wood patternmaker and for the last ten years has perfected the art of Traditional English Longbow making.
He supplies six foot longbows, arrows, bracers in leather, targets, and all the necessary equipment for the sport of archery, as a recreational pastime - still law in our country today.
As a member of the British Longbow Society and the learned Society of Archer Antiquaries, the body charged with retention and cataloguing of all archery related material.
He has written on many archery subjects, and has published the 1628 rules of Archery called 'Ayme for Finsbury Archers' orginally by James Partridge.
Mark will demonstrate the manufacture of bows, arrows, and will demonstrate how shooting the longbow can be fun and enjoyable.
There will also be an opportunity for visitors to have a a go with a longbow for a small fee.
Orders for longbows can be placed at events and Mark can also be contacted on +44 (0)1902 337622 or
