DESCRIPTION:The events of June in 1381 confronted the English 
 government with a big scale in London. At the same
  time other areas similarly witnessed outbursts of
  concerted violent protest against authority. This
  paper offers an account of the events in rural Ca
 mbridgeshire. The account considers the violent in
 cidents in the county\, including their chronologi
 cal and geographical distribution and various form
 s of violence\, which establishes that the scale o
 f the revolt in this region is limited. It also ex
 plores the rebels involved in the rebellion\, incl
 uding their social composition\, organisation and 
 aims\, which show local peculiarities of the revol
 t in this county. This study\, together with recen
 t local studies on the revolt\, reveals the comple
 xities of the 1381 Revolt\, which is further utili
 zed to demonstrate the limitations of the extant t
 wo conflicting interpretations of the revolt.
