  • Year 8 History Homework
    History at Turton We study History to know where we come from, create our identity and share the collective memory that defines us. No (wo) man is an island and everyone is shaped by the world around them. History is over 2000 years of mistakes and progress, lessons learned and forgotten. Through the acquisition of historical knowledge we gain emancipation, and thus endeavour to avoid repeating mistakes, so the world can flourish. Name: Form: Teacher: In this booklet you will find all of your homework for Year 8 History. 1 Week 1 Due date: The Battle of Bosworth The Battle of Bosworth was fought on August 22nd 1485. Henry Tudor had marched with his force from Milford Haven in Wales where he had landed with about 2000 men. The Battle of Bosworth is one of England’s defining battles as it ended the reign of Richard III and led to Henry Tudor becoming Henry VII, the first of the Tudor monarchs, a dynasty that lasted to 1603 and included the reign of two of England’s most famous monarchs – Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth I. To launch his campaign against Richard III, Henry needed money. This he got from Charles VIII of France who hoped that a conflict in England would suitably distract any attention away from his wish to take Brittany. Henry sailed from Harfleur on August 1st with a force of between 400 and 500 loyal followers and about 1500 French soldiers. The force landed at Milford Haven on August 7th and marched north along the Cardigan coastline before turning inland towards the Cambrian Mountains and then the River Severn which he followed to the English border.

Background On 30 January 1649 Charles I the King of England was executed. Since 1642 civil war had raged in England, Scotland and Ireland and men on opposite sides (Royalists and Parliamentarians) fought in battles and sieges that claimed the lives of many. Charles I was viewed by some to be the man responsible for the bloodshed and therefore could not be trusted on the throne any longer. A trial resulted in a guilty verdict and he was executed outside Banqueting House in Whitehall. During the wars Oliver Cromwell had risen amongst Army ranks and he led the successful New Model Army which had helped to secure Parliament’s eventual victory. Cromwell also achieved widespread political influence and was a high profile supporter of the trial and execution of the King. After the King’s execution England remained politically instable.

This is an excellent website for the Civil War, especially for local history. 2 Lesson 1. The English Civil War The English Civil War began in 1642, and was fought between supporters of Parliament and supporters of the King. It lasted for seven years, and was the bloodiest conflict ever fought on English soil. Nearly 4% of the population died, and families were pitted against each other: brother against brother, father against son. The soldiers who fought for Parliament were nicknamed the ‘roundheads’ due to their short hair, and those who fought for the King were nicknamed ‘cavaliers’ due to their flamboyant appearance. The roundheads were the more disciplined army, and eventually won the war. See pages 157-160 of What Your Year 4 Child Needs to Know.
