  • Oh you poor peasants(!). Tax NOW!
  • The Peasants' Revolt started on 30 May 1381 when a commissioner called Thomas Bampton entered Fobbing, a village in Essex, and brutally demanded Poll Tax for the third time in four years. Anyone over the age of 15 had to pay a shilling, which was worth a whole farm!
  • Spare us sir, please!
  • No more!!
  • W..w..e are n..n..ot paying a penny more!
  • Soon, the peasants grew from worried to angry and rose up against Brampton and tried to kill him. After that, the peasants marched from place to place and threatened to kill anyone who didn't join them.
  • Maybe we could come to some sort of an agreement?
  • DIE!!!
  • Oh no!
  • GET OUT!!!
  • All hail Wat Tyler!
  • We must fight back
  • Hrkk, HACK HACK
  • BURN!!!
  • YEAH!!!
  • TAKE THAT DUKE !
  • What is this? The commoners are retaliating? We must stop this.
  • Yes my lord, don't be afraid to kill some!
  • Meanwhile in Kent, a tax collector was sent to there but was driven away by enraged peasants. The people of Kent then gathered in large numbers and marched together to Dartford on Friday 4 June. After that they marched to Rochester on the the following Friday and gathered even more peasants
  • Open UP!!!
  • After the peasants stopped at Rochester, they continued their journey and arrived at Maidstone. Here occurred one of the most iconic moments of the Peasants' Revolt, a leader was elected. This leader was called Wat Tyler.
  • While the buildings of the Archbishop were ransacked, the commons of Kent and Southwark forced the guards guarding the castle of King Richard to open the drawbridge
  • Thank you my King
  • The following Monday, the commoners trekked to Canterbury and sliced the heads off three traitors. Meanwhile, John Ball, a priest siding with the peasants was rewarderd by King Richard by being hung and quartered!
  • All men should be free and allowed rights to all things
  • In response to the death of John Ball, the peasants gathered 60,000 men and burned down the manors of the Duke of Lancaster. to the ground.

  • When King Richard ll heard of the actions of the peasants he asked them why they were doing these things they replied by saying "they were trying to rescue him from traitors. The King agreed to meet them at Blackheath the next day
  • The thousands of peasants from Essex and Kent gathered on the two sides of the river. The King was on his way but then 'showed the peasants up' because his advisors warned him not to trust them
  • Infuriated by the influence of the King's advisors, the peasants demanded the head of the Duke of Lancaster and fifteen other lords they hated. The peasants of Kent travelled to Southwark while the peasants of Essex ransacked the buildings of the Archbishop of Canterbury
  • The peasants from Southwark and Kent forced the guards to open up the drawbridge to the Duke of Lancaster's palace. The commons of Essex entered through the Old Gate. The peasants were reckless and burnt down all the buildings within the drawbridge
  • The next day, the peasants met the King at Mile's End, the King announced that all men should have rights and should be free. The commons of Essex went home but while this was happening, Wat Tyler and some hand picked men snuck their way to the Archbishop and cut his head off. He paraded it through the streets on a stick and murdered 140 people.
  • Finally, the King told the Wat Tyler to meet him at Smithfield. Tyler demaned that there should be no lords and that church lands should be divided. Tyler was insulted and a fight broke out between him and Mayor Walworth. He was taken to St Bartholomew's hospital only to be dragged out and beheaded. The commoners then found themselves surrounded by knights and begged for mercy
