message: Reference is made to the "Oak of Reformation." What / where is this? It is not clear if this is the same as Kett's Oak or not.  DeadMansShoes (talk) 10:33, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There seem to be/have been a number of different "Kett's oaks" - see http://www.hiddenea.com/norfolkh.htm. It seems that Norfolk County Council are still in possession of an undated drawing of Kett sitting under the "Oak Of Reformation". Martinevans123 (talk) 11:10, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Oaks?

message: Should there not be a mention here what the rebellion was about? What is the relevance of illegally celebrating Thomas Beckett? The first sentence leads directly to "It was here that the anger of the town people came to such a point that violence came to them."
This reads like a quote out of context and doesn't explain WHY the folks were angry. I suggest adding some lines from the entry on Wymondham: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wymondham:
"In 1549, Robert Kett (or Ket) led a rebellion of peasants and small farmers who were protesting about the enclosure of common land. He took a force of almost unarmed men, and fought for and held the City of Norwich for six weeks until defeated by the King's forces. He was hanged from Norwich Castle. Kett's Oak, said to be the rallying point for the rebellion, may still be seen today on the road between Wymondham and Hethersett."
Or something along these lines. Just a thought...  Mrs_Cake  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrs cake (talk • contribs) 15:31, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

message: The "Attacks on the rebels" section lacks sufficient references which is holding this article back from a potential WP:GAN. Otherwise a well-sourced article. Duffit5 (talk) 21:01, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
