Settlements Human/Urban Geography

What are they? Settlements are purposely grouped and organized clusters of houses and buildings.

Vikings raided the coastal areas and also built settlements

In 1066 William of Normandy conquered England. William brought in many French lords and gave them a lot of land for settlement. This led to future contention between England and France which remains today.

Henry VIII came along and destroyed the Roman cathedrals This is part of a destroyed cathedral in York (the dissolution of the monasteries)

Each of these peoples left an imprint on England and its landscape. This process is called sequent occupance  a process of settlement by successive groups of people in which each group creates a distinctive cultural landscape

Local Settlements What are some examples of sequent occupance in the Waterloo region?
