  • The Two Anglo-Saxon Burhs of Oxford
    The Two Anglo-Saxon Burhs of Oxford Jeremy Haslam SUMMARY This article puts forward a new context and chronology for the development of the two parts of the late Saxon burh at Oxford, using archaeological, topographical, and historical evidence. It argues that the original burh was created in c.878–9 and that the eastern extension – effectively a second burh – was added in the early tenth century. Both dates are earlier than those usually proposed. The results of recent excavations on the site of the Norman castle have made it possible not only to establish the original extent of the primary burh, but also to identify a phase of the re-defence in probably the early eleventh century as a response to renewed Viking raiding. general hypothesis which has emerged from work on the development of Oxford over a A century or more is that an original defended nucleus centred on the cross-roads at Carfax was augmented by a secondary defended area which formed an eastern extension at some later date. Observations of various kinds, mainly of an archaeological and topographical nature, have been adduced in support of this hypothesis, some aspects of which have recently been discussed by Julian Munby.1 Although many – but by no means all – of the arguments put forward in support of this hypothesis are compelling in combination, important aspects of Oxford’s early urban development remain uncertain or controversial. By applying what Anne Dodd has described as ‘a critical archaeological examination’ to the available evidence,2 it is possible to articulate a new model and revised timeframe for the origin and development of both of the primary and secondary burhs and to place them within their wider political and strategic contexts.

  • The South Oxfordshire Chilterns: an Overview
    VCH Oxfordshire • Texts in Progress • The South Oxfordshire Chilterns (April 2021) • p. 1 VCH Oxfordshire Texts in Progress The South Oxfordshire Chilterns: An Overview This overview forms the introduction to VCH Oxfordshire XX (The South Oxfordshire Chilterns), which is complete and peer-reviewed, and will be published in 2021–2. The volume as a whole will cover Caversham, Checkendon, Crowmarsh Gifford, Eye and Dunsden, Goring, Ipsden, Mapledurham, Mongewell, Newnham Murren, North Stoke, Shiplake, and Whitchurch. Maps and illustrations in the final version will differ. ___________________________________________________________________ The twelve ancient parishes covered in this volume lie within a loop of the river Thames in the county’s south-east corner, straddling the Chiltern hills’ south-west end, and all formerly bordering Berkshire.1 Most formed long thin ‘strip’ parishes stretching from the river into the hills, encompassing scattered upland settlement and wood pasture as well as nucleated riverside villages – the site, in most cases, of the parish church. Though long interconnected, the hills and the vale still form distinct landscape zones, albeit now with some denser centres of upland settlement compared with earlier. Neighbouring riverside towns – Wallingford to the north-west, Reading to the south, and Henley-on-Thames to the north-east – exerted important influences from the Middle Ages, as did London some 40–50 miles to the east. The economy was predominantly agricultural until the 20th century, with woodland and woodland crafts playing a significant role, and local industry including small-scale brickmaking and quarrying alongside the usual rural trades. Gentrification gained momentum from the mid 19th century, accelerated by the arrival of the railway from 1840 and especially affecting the area’s attractive riverside villages, which saw extensive new building by wealthy incomers.

  • Anglo-Saxon Aristocracy
    -404- ANGLO-SAXON ARISTOCRACY ANGLO-SAXON ARISTOCRACY: TRACING LINEAGES by T S M Mōmmaerts-Browne1 ABSTRACT This piece was inspired by an earlier work by David Kelley, The House of Aethelred, in which he called for further research of Anglo-Saxon notables. The article traces the origins and peregrinations of fate of several Anglo-Saxon noble lineages. The author aims to show that some families were other branches of the Gewissæ, (the royal house of Wessex); while others were continuations of other royal families, sovereign, prior to the unification of Egbert, Æthelwulf, and sons. Thus, it is a study in the comparative vicissitudes of the various dynasties of the so-called 'heptarchy'. The results can be used to explore social and political evolution of these houses. One of the theses of this work is that it links more lines to the earlier dynasties, some of which hitherto lacked descents beyond their losses of sovereignty. Foundations (2005) 1 (6): 404-413 © Copyright FMG In the last century there has been much research into the relationships of Anglo- Saxon kings and nobles, with a consequent increase in our knowledge, not only of the genealogies involved, but also of the socio-political economic structures of pre- Norman England. Loyn (1963), Hart (1973) and Stenton (1971), have all accepted that the nobles were descended from royalty or collaterals of reigning lines. Jones (1989) discusses the uses of collaterals as sub-kings, and mentions both the occasional use of the word ‘satrap’ for ealdorman, and the possibility of using descendants of conquered dynasties as local governors, without mentioning that the word ‘satrap’ derives from the Persians, who used conquered dynasts in exactly this way.

Butlers and dish-bearers in Anglo-Saxon courts: household officers at the royal table It has been recognized for a long time that meals, and particularly festive meals— feasts or banquets, the words being, for all purposes, considered here as synonyms—played an important role in the life and political activity of Anglo-Saxon elites.1 Kings, thegns and other members of the elite—including some women—participated in feasts of political importance, in which both vertical and horizontal dimensions of power structures—that is, feelings of community and hierarchy—were at the same time established, consolidated and expressed.2 Instrumental in making such events a political success were a category of court officers which modern studies and translations of early medieval sources call ‘butlers’, ‘cupbearers’, ‘dish-bearers’ or ‘seneschals’.

  • The Early Life of a Great Royal Fortress
    Podcast transcript THE EARLY LIFE OF A GREAT ROYAL FORTRESS Hello and welcome to a podcast from Royal Collection Trust. This is the first in a series of lectures examining new research into the history of Windsor Castle. Dr Steven Brindle explores old Windsor and the early history of the castle from the year 1000AD to 1216. For more information about these and other learning events, please visit the 'What's On' section of our website. Richard. Thank you, thank you very much indeed and always remember, ladies and gentlemen, it’s quality not quantity that counts. Right, I am indeed the editor and lead author of The New History of Windsor, which the Royal Collection Trust are hoping to publish next year. And I wrote most of the medieval chapters, including the ones which relate to these periods. So the content is by may-, by way of being my responsibility or fault, whichever way you may come to think by the end of this presentation. Moving swiftly on to the content, we arrive here at one of the most superficially familiar, not to say famous places in Britain. A place so famous that in a way it always seems to have been here. The castle seems synonymous with the name. The name seems synonymous with the hill. And the castle absolutely seems to embody the idea of a great castle on a hill. But there is much in its early history which is paradoxical and strange. And amongst these things one might point out the fact, that in the in the very early stages, this place wasn't in Windsor at all.

THE publication of this Work so long after the Author's decease seems to call for some explanation. Originally intended to follow upon the Facsimile of the Bedfordshire Domesday, published by Government in 1862, as an extension and translation of that document, the Work was delayed in its progress Trom various causes. When the translation was just completed, my father became convinced that a mere translation would be useless, and that, in order to serve the purpose which he designed for it, the Work must rather take the form of an Analysis. Consequently, after a short interval, he commenced this " Digest," which, under the pressure of much other business of one kind and another, progressed more slowly than he had anticipated. That the main part of it was finished in 1873 is evident from its dedication to Archdeacon Rose, who died in that year: but it was not until a few months before his own death in 1874 that my father spoke of the Work as being at last quite completed.
