Explanation

The correct option works because it matches the period context of Paper 2 Section B: British depth studies including the historic environment and uses the same evidence base as Study economic and social changes and consequences, including Anglo-Saxon and Norman life, towns, villages, buildings, work, food, roles, seasonal life and Forest. The rejected options are weaker: 1) A judgement with no supporting evidence.; 2) A point that confuses change with continuity.; 3) A description from a different route..
