Living History

Some staff at Palmers Farm were dressed in traditional Tudor clothes and they showed the children how to do traditional Tudor jobs such as chopping wood and mending shoes.

                                                            The girls liked the traditional cart.  It had very

                                                                         large wooden wheels which would have given a   

                                                                                                          bumpy ride!

Some of the children held and fed the kestrel.  It's name was Kip.
