Two videos on the construction of early medieval buildings


Woodlandstv.co.uk, a British group that promotes the use of woodlands, has produced two videos that will be of interest to medievalists.

The first video depicts early medieval timberwork processes, showing how round logs were turned into square building beams. The second is a reconstruction of an Anglo-Saxon dwelling with a shingled roof.

Both demonstrations were presented by the East Sussex Archaeology and Museums Partnership.
