Weald and Downland Living Museum Ticket Portal

The houses of the Weald from medieval to early modern

Saturday 6 July 2024

This day school will look at houses in the Weald as homes in which families lived and worked. It will consider both the continuity and changes which occurred from the late Medieval period, through transitional stages to the early-modern era. It will place the houses in both their historical context and landscape setting, within the various settlement types of the region — rural, village and town. Finally, it will consider how the external appearance of homes have changed over the period and, in this respect, will bring the story up to the present day. A visit to selected houses on the museum site will be included.
