This is one of a series designed to help teachers planning a site visit. Historical background is combined with a variety of possible study approaches, documentary sources and photocopiable activity sheets for classroom and on-site work, together with practical information about the site. This book focuses on Dover Castle, which contains within its bounds fine examples of public and military building spanning 2000 years. The site, defined by an Iron Age hill-fort and graced by a Roman lighthouse and Saxon church, best displays the development of castle architecture in the 12th and 13th centuries. However, it remained a garrison until the 20th century, and contains important examples of Georgian and Victorian military engineering.
