Totnes Castle

This is one of a series which is intended to help teachers planning a site visit. Historical background is combined with a variety of possible study approaches, documentary sources and photocopiable activity sheets for classroom and on-site work, together with practical information about the site. Focusing on Totnes Castle, this book includes project themes such as invasion, the use of evidence and the building of the castle. There are plans of how to make a Norman motte and a set of cards for a role play activity, "Murder in the Castle". Also included are two interacting site trails for "Normans" and "Saxons" and an archaeological survey sheet.
