What was in a Tudor inventory?

This History video helps teachers introduce Tudor inventories as valuable historical sources. It explains how inventories recorded a person’s possessions after death and what they reveal about Tudor life, work and social status.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s History – Teacher subject knowledge videos. It explores examples like Richard Lylly and Cattelena of Almondsbury, encouraging children to investigate wealth and occupation using historical evidence and apply their understanding by creating an inventory for John Blanke.

History, What was life like in Tudor England?, Year 5, What can inventories tell us about life in Tudor times?
