durhammap

This session is aimed at KS3 and 4 students who are studying the English Civil War and its impacts. In this session, students can engage with primary material from Durham University’s Archives and Special Collections.

These can help students learn not only about the impact of the English Civil War, but also how to access original historical sources and to consider the impact of bias. This resource was created as part of the Cosin’s Library Project at Palace Green Library, Durham University.
