Course Title: 900 Years of British Agriculture
Course Description: The course takes a chronological approach covering the years 1066-1945. The focus is on the development of agricultural techniques, the effect on people’s lives and the way in
which the landscape has been changed as a result of human activity. The course uses a variety of material – family written sources, oral history, popular song and documentary film. This enables study of the human aspect, particularly the lot of the agricultural labourer.
