A Tour around the House
the Great Hall
the Kitchen
We are preparing for a banquet[1] tonight. There will be 50 guests from all over the county. If you look into the Great Hall you can imagine what it will be like. We have to cook 3 oxen, 4 pigs, 2 sheep, 10 geese, 5 swans and 5 peacocks[2]. Its all very spicy, things like ginger and hot pepper from the East. They are very expensive. There will be 10 casks of ale and 100 bottles of wine from France. All the plates and bowls are made of pewter[3]. There are knives and spoons but most will eat with their fingers.
The Bedroom
This is the main bedroom, I was on my way up here to sweep it out when you arrived. But Lady Matilda is in the room, she hasn’t gone hunting after all, so I will have to come back later. It gives me time to show you a little more. Its very bare apart from the bed but I think you will agree its a lot more comfortable than Kitty's house.

| pig /swine | pork |
| cow | beef |
| chicken | poultry |
| sheep | mutton |
| deer | venison |
| veal | calf of a cow |
