Life in the 18th Century England was very different from life today. People's lives mostly centred around their home and village or city. They rarely travelled further than the next town.

Read this document all about Life for the Rich, Life for the Poor and Prison Hulks. Take notes as we will be using this information in class.

In class we will be writing a newspaper article for 'The Morning Chronicle' as if we were living in this time. It is important to remember that the document is written in past tense and we need to write in present tense, as if it was happening right now.

Your article can be about the rich, the poor and/or prison bulks. You will also need to include a black and white picture.
