Description:In the second part of episode IV, a sudden disturbance was ‘heard in the distance, and the King’s baggage wagons, which have been attacked by the crowd in Birmingham, cross at a gallop, pursued by yelling groups of people’. Roundhead troops with two large cannons laid siege to the Aston Hall. Later in the scene, the audience would witness the ‘gallant Sir Thomas Holte led captive between lines of jeering Puritan rabble’. The performers for this episode came from the Northern districts of Aston, Nechells, Lozells and Witton.
