Explanation
This exam-style task requires a developed historical argument rather than a list of facts. Begin with the relevant period from Paper 2 Section B: British depth studies including the historic environment, then anchor the answer in Part two: Life under the Normans. The evidence should connect to Study economic and social changes and consequences, including Anglo-Saxon and Norman life, towns, villages, buildings, work, food, roles, seasonal life and Forest and be explained through cause, consequence, change, continuity, significance or interpretation as appropriate. A strong final judgement shows why the selected evidence is more convincing than a vague or unsupported claim.
Common mistake
Avoid confusing Forest law
A common mistake is to write about Forest law as a general opinion, or to mix up cause, consequence, change and continuity in c1066-c1100.
Anchor the answer to Part two: Life under the Normans, use precise evidence, and state whether Forest law is a cause, consequence, change, continuity or significant development.
