What was it like in early Anglo-Saxon times? Perhaps we will never really know? Walk in the footsteps of our ancestors, explore their homes, see the evidence for yourself - then make up your own mind.
The village
West Stow Anglo-Saxon Village lets you explore the way our ancestors lived. The early Anglo-Saxon village (c.420-650AD) has been carefully reconstructed where it was excavated. Experimental archaeology has provided new ideas on what life was once like at West Stow. In the Anglo-Saxon centre, objects from the original village are displayed, telling the fascinating story of this settlement and the people who lived here.
Visitors can go into the houses, smell the wood smoke, feel the solid wood, imagine living in early Anglo-Saxon times. You might see wildlife, crops, pigs or hens; there is no hurry on this journey through time.
