History on view Throughout the District you will discover industrial heritage, maritime and military history, and many other traces of the past. The annual Heritage Open Days, the museums, occasional guided tours of buildings and sites, and heritage themed events are all a great way to discover the past.

The Battle of Maldon 991AD In the last decades of the 10th century, Danish raiders were ravaging East Anglia's coastline, leaving a bloody trail of death and destruction in their wake. Byrhtnoth, Earldorman of Essex, with an army of loyal followers, faced them near Northey Island in August 991. After a fierce three-day battle, Byrhtnoth lay dead and the Anglo-Saxons were defeated, yet the Danes had suffered huge losses and were forced to retreat.

This important episode in England's history is recorded in an epic poem, the earliest work of English literature. The battle site is recorded by English Heritage as the oldest battlefield in England.

An impressive bronze statue of Byrhtnoth, by the local, and internationally known sculptor, John Doubleday, now guards the waterfront in Maldon's Promenade Park. Visit the Maeldune Heritage Centre to see a 42-foot embroidery created to mark the 1000th anniversary of the battle. home previous home next BY THE WATER . . .
