You might like to look at "Maths and the Historic Environment", published by the English Heritage education department ( ISBN 1-85074-329-0), which looks at ways of using historic buildings to teach maths.  With a little imagination some of the approaches can be used in other circumstances. 

If you want details of how to order it direct from English Heritage email me off list.
