Questions, time, types of question.

You need to make sure that you attempt every question, even if you are unsure about your answer,

writing something is better than writing nothing.

When writing your answers, you need to ensure you are using key words and where appropriate,

Remember to check the amount of marks available for a question and the amount of space you

should be making in your answer.

If you are provided with ‘‘sources’ or ‘interpretations’ in a question, make sure you are referring to

these in your answer….they are part of the question for a reason!

England before 1066

Task 1 – Anglo-Saxon England before 1066

10 point summary

England was a wealthy country with around 2 million people living in it. Most of these people lived in the south, with fewer in the north and west.

Religion was important, everyone followed Catholic Christianity and accepted what the Church said as absolute fact.

Edward the Confessor had ruled since 1042 and his reign had been largely stable and peaceful. His rule was aided by the Witan.

Society was ordered by a hierarchy where people were ordered by their level of importance. The king was at the top, followed by the Church. Earls and then peasants at the bottom.

There were hardly any castles in England and it was not very well defended.

Most of the southern half of England was covered in forest and there were small villages where the forest had been cleared and land was farmed.

The king had earls to help him rule England. Each earl helped rule a different part of England.

The king had earls and housecarls who were professionally trained soldiers – there were around 2500-3000 housecarls in England.

The most powerful earl in England was Earl Godwin who had a close relationship with King Edward but who had publicly fallen out with him in 1052.

England had good trade links with other countries such as Norway and France. It had a sophisti-cated minting system – it made its own coins – and had one of the most advanced economic systems in the known world at this time.

Task: based on the 10 point summary, what were the positives and negatives of Anglo-Saxon England?

Positives of Anglo-Saxon England Negatives of Anglo-Saxon England

Rebellions against William

Revolts against the Normans 1066 – 1075

Task: Match the rebellion to the description using the map and

your content booklet.

Which rebellion? Description

William appointed Copsig to rule part of England, which was an odd decision as Copsig had previously worked for Earl Tostig Godwinson. Copsig was soon am-bushed by Northumbrians and his head hacked off.

1068 – The South

West

The city of Exeter rebelled against William and was put under siege for 18 days. William then lowered taxes and built a castle to increase his control over the city. Despite two attempted rebellions from Harold Godwinson’s sons, Exeter remained loyal thanks to William’s actions.

Eadric the Wild was joined by two Welsh kings and attacked Herefordshire.

Two Anglo-Saxon earls rebelled for a second time, but submitted to William when he began to build more castles in England.

The final challenge that William faced, but this time from the Earl of Hereford and the Earl of East Anglia – with support from Waltheof. William dealt with this rebellion relatively easily, and by the time the Danes arrived the rebellion was over.

A difficult to control area of England sought help from King Swein of Denmark, as well as rebelling several times themselves at places such as Durham. Following the rebellion, William laid waste to the land, with mass killings and burnings.

People were angry at how they had been treated by the Normans after the Battle of Hastings. They persuaded the French Eustace of Boulogne to attempt to seize Dover Castle but when he did, he didn’t attack with enough force and was soon defeated.

William faced a rebellion from the Danes who had remained in England despite agreeing to leave, and an Anglo-Saxon called Hereward. This was not a com-pletely serious rebellion as King Swein had given up on the idea of taking Eng-land, however Hereward was a nuisance to William.

What changed under the Normans?

Task: in the final column of the table, explain what had changed from the Anglo-Saxons to the Nor-mans. A model has been carried out for you.

Feature Anglo-Saxon Norman What changed?

Feudal Sys-tem

Six major earldoms in 1066 4,000 thegns King owned most of the land, followed by the Church.

King owned about 20% of the land, with the Church owning around 25% of land. Remaining land shared be-tween 200 Norman barons and bishops. By 1086 only 4 thegns owned land. Royal Forests and Forest Law created.

- More land given to barons and bishops. - Fewer thegns owned land. - More Royal Forests created. - Forest Law created.

Military Con-trol

The main part of the king’s army would be made up from house-carls. For the rest of the ar-my, the Anglo-Saxons used the fyrd.

Knights made an oath to their lord – it was a reli-gious duty to provide ser-vice. Knights always had to carry out military service. By 1100 the Norman king had 5,000 knights he could call on.

National government

The king was in charge and the nobility were involved in the process of decision making through the Witan. Anglo-Saxon govern-ment issued orders in writing – these were called writs. This was a short document which gave orders to be sent around the country and he system was known as gov-ernment by writ.

Norman kings continued to take the advice of their lading subjects through the Great Council.

The Normans continued government by writ but issued far more orders, which allowed William to create a more centralised government.

Local gov-ernment

Under the Anglo-Saxon, England had been split into 134 shires. A shire-reeve (the original word for sheriff) was in charge of each shire and or-ganised justice, pun-ishment and the col-lecting of taxes. Each shire was split into smaller areas known as hundreds.

The Normans found the Anglo-Saxon system effec-tive so still used sheriffs. The sheriff acted as second to a baron in an area, and was a vital link between the king and the local area. Anglo-Saxon sheriffs were replaced with Norman sheriffs.
