ACTIVITIES

Medieval Shrine

This study unit is based on a visit to the village of Walsingham in North Norfolk. The pupils will visit the priory ruins and explore the village (much of which is medieval) and walk from the Slipper Chapel to the Friday Market following the route of the original pilgrims. They will also examine the reasons for the growth of the village away from its original centre around the village church. The original 14th century plans will be examined and the effects on them of the break with Rome and the dissolution of the monasteries will be considered.
