Anglo-Saxon houses


What houses were made of ?

Anglo-Saxons houses were made of wood and thach. The roof is made of straw and the body is made of wood which rots away very quickly.They used clay and morter to fill in the gaps in the wood. To keep warm their houses were built facing the sun.

Where light came from ?

Anglo-Saxon houses didn't have much light.So to solve this they had slits as the windows which would let wind,rain and sun inside.Inside there would be a fire so when it was cold outside it would be warm inside.+-
