What reading level is The Pilgrims' Way From Winchester to Canterbury book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Two massive octa- gonal towers of three stories, with double square- headed windows, and a fragment of a cloister, now used as farm stables, are the only portions remaining. These evidently formed part of the outer court, and are good specimens of fifteenth- century brickwork. The tower was considerably BECKET S WELL 13I higher a hundred years ago, and Hasted describes the ruins as covering nearly an acre of ground.
The stones of the structure were largely used in the neighbouring buildings, an...d the Bull Inn contains a good deal of fine oak wainscoting, and several handsome carved mantelpieces, which originally belonged to the castle. Two heads in profile, carved in oak over one of the fireplaces, are said to represent Henry VHI. and Katherine of Aragon. A bath, or chamber, paved and lined with stone, about thirty feet long, and ten or twelve feet deep, not far from the ruins, still bears the name of Becket's Well. Tradition ascribes the birth of the spring which supplies it to St. Thomas, who, finding no water at Otford, struck the hill-side with his staff, and at once brought forth a clear stream, which since then has never been known to fail.
