Photos & Video: Gunpowder Plot Reenactment
The Bermuda Pilot Gig Club hosted a reenactment of the 1775 Gunpowder Plot this weekend at Tobacco Bay.
A spokesperson previously said, “This unique event serves as a heartfelt tribute to the late Maurice Johnson, coxswain, boatswain, and ‘unbelievable’ storyteller of the Gig Club, whose passion for Bermuda’s history and re-enactments inspired this initiative.
“The re-enactment will bring to life the covert operation where Bermudian sympathisers to the American cause stole over 100 barrels of gunpowder from a British magazine in St. George’s.”
