The Outcome of the Norman Conquest on Anglo-Saxon Gardens
The Outcome of the Norman Conquest on Anglo-Saxon Gardens The Anglo-Saxon way of life was dramatically changed by the arrival of the Normans in the later eleventh century. The Normans were much better than the Anglo-Saxons at architecture and horticulture when they came into power. But before centering on home-life or having the occasion to consider domestic architecture or decoration, the Normans had to subjugate an entire population. Because of this, castles were cruder buildings than monasteries: Monasteries were usually important stone buildings set in the biggest and most fertile valleys, while castles were built on windy crests where their inhabitants devoted time and space to tasks for offense and defense. The bare fortresses did not provide for the calm avocation of horticulture. Berkeley Castle is most likely the most intact model in existence at present of the early Anglo-Norman style of architecture. The keep is reported to have been invented during the time of William the Conqueror. A spacious terrace recommended for exercising and as a way to stop enemies from mining below the walls runs about the building. A scenic bowling green, covered in grass and surrounded by battlements cut out of an ancient yew hedge, creates one of the terraces.
