Enter the world of Rural Tudor England.
 Strange medicines and practices, and medicines that still work well today.

 Farming, the crops grown, animals kept, food production, and even authentic - and tasty! - recipes.

Clothes worn, fabric production and dyeing of materials (the delightful "fixative", stale urine!).

The Garden that held plants for all of the above,
with
the plant folklore.

Things to do, solve my jigsaw puzzle, and things to make, as well as to read!

By a former staff member of a museum education department.

Step-by-step lessons to use with the kits to bring History alive.
