Yealmpton's burning, Yealmpton's burning!

Today we finally burnt our Tudor houses in a very exciting re-enactment of The Great Fire of London. First we remembered how and why the fire began and then how and why it spread through the City of London. After that we put our Science hats on and had a think about what we thought might happen if we tried to recreate the fire using houses that are close together and houses that are far apart. We were all amazed by how quickly the fire spread and how there was hardly anything left from our houses at the end of the experiment!
