Шаблон:Use dmy dates An unauthorised meeting was held at Broadway in Worcestershire in January 1648, by about 80 officers from four or five Parliamentary regiments.[1][2] They met to discuss grievances, principally the issue of back pay.[3]

One report in a letter read out in Parliament on 24 January 1648, suggested that up to 60 of the officers present were plotting a military uprising. However no uprising took place, whether that was because the Derby House Committee took actions that pre-empted the insurrection or if there was no substance to the report is not known.[3]
