Are you aged 1418 and curious about history? Join us in the Cathedral Archives for a unique hands-on session exploring original documents and manuscripts from the Anglo-Saxon and Norman periods. Learn how the Norman Conquest impacted the southwest of England and discover how history is preserved through these centuries-old records. You will get a behind-the-scenes look at rare archival materials and uncover the stories they tell about life at the Cathedral in Anglo-Saxon and Norman England.
