Abbey of St Edmund Resource pack

St Edmundsbury Borough Council produced a resource pack on the Abbey of St Edmund to support teaching on Key Stage3: Medieval Realms, back in the 1990s. Today this may seem rather outdated but it still provides some excellent information in the form of what were originally a series of A4 sheets. It will, of course, not have the most up to date details.

The pack contains information under the following headings:

• Sources of Evidence
• The Abbey of St Edmund
• A Benedictine Abbey
• The Monks of the Abbey
• The Building of the Abbey
• The Abbey Precinct
• The Abbey and the Crown
• The Abbey and the Town
• The Dissolution of the Abbey

This Resource Pack is downloadable below in the form of three different pdfs.
