Editing Battle of Evesham (section)

==Aftermath==
The royalists were eager to settle scores after de Montfort's defeat. At the [[Parliament of England|Parliament]] at [[Winchester]] in September the same year, all those who had taken part in the rebellion were disinherited. Yet even though the uprising of the younger Simon de Montfort in [[Lincolnshire]] was over by Christmas, scattered resistance remained. The main problem was the garrison encamped at the virtually impregnable [[Kenilworth Castle]], and a siege started in the summer of 1266 seemed futile. By the end of October, the royalists drew up the so-called [[Dictum of Kenilworth]], whereby rebels were allowed to buy back their land at prices dependent on their level of involvement in the rebellion. The defenders of the castle turned down the offer at first, but by the end of the year conditions had become intolerable, and in 1267 the Dictum was agreed upon.<ref>Prestwich (2005), p. 117.</ref>

In regard to wide-scale confrontations, the Battle of Evesham and its aftermath proved decisive: it ended baronial opposition in the reign of Henry III. The kingdom now entered into a period of unity and progress that lasted into the early 1290s.<ref>Prestwich (2005), p. 121.</ref>
