Viking Street

Children visit and explore historical sites, such as the Mary Rose or Quarry Bank Mill. The children investigate each location, and explore the artefacts and documents they find there. From the evidence they discover, they build a picture of life in the past.

Through the use of artefacts and documents found at the Jorvik Viking Centre in York this book builds a picture of what life was like for the Vikings in Britain. It describes the inside of a Viking house, what was sold in Viking shops, and how songs and poems were spread from place to place.
