Great Fire recreated

Redditch Editorial 8th Jan, 2015 Updated: 18th Oct, 2016   0

A FAMOUS fire was recreated nearly 350 years on at a Haselor school.

Pupils at Tudor Grange Primary Academy in the village built a replica of the Great Fire of London with the help of Alcester Fire Service.

A school spokeswoman said: “Children from Year 1 and 2 made Tudor Houses and these were arranged in the car park to recreate Pudding Lane.

“The fire began in Thomas Farriner’s bakery and will spread to the rest of the street.




“This helped the children to visually recall the Great Fire and further enhanced their learning on fire safety.”
