  • Britford Church, Wiltshire
    Church of St. Peter, Britford, Wilts. Taylor’s account of this church runs to a good two pages, but visible remains condense down to two side arches which originally led to their individual porticus, or side chapel, parts of the south doorway (much restored), and parts of the walls. Having been reopened in the restoration of 1873 the two nave arches were provided with small annexes into which they now open. Rickman saw the (then) blocked arches and dated them as Anglo-Saxon. Taylor puts a date (one of his standard bracketed dates) of 800-950. I would prefer a (tentative) date of c.850, in part because of the generous width of the nave. There remains part of the fabric of the nave and parts of the east walls of both porticus embedded in the medieval transepts. The south porch was built to protect the pre-conquest nave doorway which was reopened; it is however much altered. The porch dated to the 1873 restoration. Pages 1 & 2 have been added/inserted in 2011 (and revised in 2019) and to avoid disturbing the original numbering the other pictures, those on these 2 pages are 1 individually numbered. The topmost picture is of the church from the SW and it shows (red arrow) the south annexe built to protect the opened up south archway to its ‘lost’ porticus. The nave west wall is possibly a Georgian rebuild and with a new and larger west window dating to the Victorian restoration. At that time the west doorway was removed along with its plain porch, probably also Georgian in date.

  • Britford, Wiltshire: Archaeology and History (Summary for Visitors Prepared by the Royal Archaeological Institute, 2017)
    Britford, Wiltshire: archaeology and history (summary for visitors prepared by the Royal Archaeological Institute, 2017) Although so close to modern suburbs of Salisbury, Britford seems extremely remote. It may have been on a major route to Southampton before New Salisbury diverted the Exeter road in the thirteenth century, however (see Salisbury on-line entry). It is on the River Avon, much affected by new channels for water-meadows (see Salisbury: Harnham on-line entry) and a proposed seventeenth-century canal. Its name was written down as Brutford in one Anglo- Saxon document, Bredford in Domesday Book, neither of which points to a favoured interpretation as ‘ford of the British’ and seems to preclude ‘bright’ as well, so it may refer to a lost stream name. King Edward the Confessor stayed here in 1065, so presumably it was an Anglo-Saxon royal residence, which would give a context for the church, the large parish of which indicates that it was a ‘minster’. Hunting on Cranborne Chase and in what was to become Clarendon Park and Forest was available locally. (Plan by Tim Tatton-Brown drawn by Jill Atherton) The church has a nave, low crossing tower, chancel, porch and transepts. Outside, on the south side there is a small projection in the angle of the nave and transept, which becomes explicable inside, as there survive two round- arched openings that were the entries into Anglo-Saxon side porticuses; the north one was excavated in about 1956 (Chambers 1959 – see plan; Taylor and Taylor 1965, 105-8; Cocke, ed. 1987, 113-5; photographs by Trish Steel reproduced under common licence CC-By-SA 2.0, accessed from Wikimedia).
