Saxon life at West Stowe

There were many jobs to be done in an Anglo-Saxon village, such as chopping firewood, churning butter and grinding flour. A typical village would have a metal forger and a builder. Children didn't have time to play as there were lots of jobs to do to help their families. A lot of Saxons were Pagans, meaning they believed in spells and charms and worshipped several gods.
