| | Kett's Rebellion 1549 |
 | | Kett was a contented yeoman farmer, tanner and, with his brother William, was responsible for the saving of what remains of Wymondham Abbey from destruction following the Dissolution of the Monasteries. |
 | | Kett’s fight for justice could be seen as doomed from the start, but, along with other events, it sowed a seed. |
 | | In 1999, Norfolk people celebrated the 450th anniversary of Kett’s Rebellion, with a moving free play in parks and schools, a festival in the Ketts’ home-town of Wymondham, a commemorative ale brewed by Norfolk’s Woodforde’s Brewery and the honour of commemoration in the 1999 logo of the annual CAMRA Norwich Beer Festival. |
