  • The Battle of Brunanburh
    THE BATTLE OF BRUNANBURH They take the rustic rumour of their bourg For the great wave that echoes round the world. Idylls of the King Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) We will probably never know where the Battle of Brunanburh was fought; but there are many theories. Some of these rely on geography and topography, but one, which located the Battle in Brinsworth near Rotherham, relied almost wholly on the supposed derivation of place-names. This is an unreliable methodology; but it was popular (and apparently unquestioned) in the 12th century, when Geoffrey of Monmouth wrote his Historia Regum Britanniae (‘History of the Kings of Britain’). Geoffrey tells us that our island took its name from Brutus, Prince of the Trojans, in the same way that (according to early Scottish historians) Scotland took its name from the daughter of an ancient Pharaoh, Scota. One would not have expected a 20th century audience to be so gullible. The Problem For 400 years after the first Germanic settlers arrived on our shores, ‘England’ was not even a geographical expression. The southern parts of the old Roman province of Britannia were occupied by a number of tribes whom we have come to call ‘the Anglo-Saxons’. They were ruled by a large number of petty kings, though eventually there were only seven kingdoms which mattered. According to Bede, the Anglo-Saxons sometimes recognised one of them as ‘Bretwalda’, or ‘leader of the Britons’ (whch may have implied lordship over Celtic Britons as well as Teutonic kinsmen). During the late 9th century, these kingdoms came under attack from Danish Vikings, who overran large parts of northern and eastern England while, in the early 10th century, Norse Vikings settled in the North and the West, briefly creating a kingdom based on York.

The Register provides an Wannual snapshot of historic sites known to be at risk from neglect, decay or inappropriate development. Nationally, there are more barrows on the Register than any other type of site. The main risk to their survival is ploughing. The good news is that since 2014 we have reduced the number of barrows at risk by over 130, by working with owners and, in particular, Natural England to improve their management. This picture is repeated in Yorkshire, where the greatest concentration of barrows at risk is in the rich farmland of the Wolds.
