Salisbury Cathedral, Medieval tomb, effigy of Sir John De Montacute by Rein Coppens

He fought in two successful battles against The French in what is known as “The Hundred Years’ War. (Fighting did not take place for the entire 100 years, but was on and off during that period). Montacute was present at the famous Battle of Crecy, in August 1346, in which the English long bowmen played a vital role in defeating a much larger French army. He also participated under the leadership of Edward III’s son, The Black Prince, in the Battle of Poitiers in September 1356, where again, the long bowmen played a decisive role in again defeating a larger French army. This time, the French King, King John, was captured along with his youngest son. Montacute would have witnessed 2000 longbow men firing at least at a rate of 10 arrows a minute at the French. A simple calculation shows that if they all fired together 20 000 arrows were in the sky heading for the French every minute, an awesome sight for the English but a horrific sight for the French unable to dodge them.
