Historian Ruth Goodman and archaeologists Peter Ginn and Tom Pinfold turn the
clock back as they learn how to build a medieval castle using the same tools,
techniques and materials available in the 13th century.
Although Britain has some of the finest remaining castles of the medieval
period, many of their secrets have been lost in time.
Peter and Tom set to work straight away learning the skills of the medieval
stonemasons to construct a beautiful spiral staircase. After digging stone out
of the quarry they take it to the tracing floor, where every stone is marked
out using the most closely guarded knowledge of the medieval castle builders:
geometry. Then each step is hand carved, a three-day task, before being winched
into place using the treadmill-powered crane.
Meanwhile Ruth sets about equipping the simple wattle and daub hovel that is to
be their base. She experiments by laying a rush floor, and she commissions clay
cooking pots and an oak grain arc to store their wheat and barley. Medieval
saws were incredibly expensive, so the arc is carved with an axe and assembled
without nails.
It becomes clear that all the stone, wood, mortar, dyes, food and water
required for the castle needed to be sourced from the surrounding landscape -
transporting heavy goods in the 13th century was expensive. One of the most
important resources on a medieval building site was water, so Peter visits a
wood turner to make a pulley and Tom makes a rope to hoist the bucket from the
well. As they enjoy a simple meal of barley and vegetable pottage, they reflect
that there are no easy jobs in the medieval age!
