  • Extending Histories: from Medieval Mottes to Prehistoric Round Mounds
    University of Reading Extending Histories: from Medieval Mottes to Prehistoric Round Mounds Berkhamsted Castle, Hertfordshire Interim Report Phil Stastney and Elaine Jamieson Document Control Version Date Compiler Status 1.0 PS, EJ Interim Report Executive Summary Berkhamsted Castle is located on the north side of the town of Berkhamsted and sits in the Akeman Street gap through the Chiltern Hills, in the county of Hertfordshire. In 2015, as part of the Leverhulme Trust funded project Extending Histories: from Medieval Mottes to Prehistoric Round Mounds, staff from the University of Reading undertook archaeological investigations at the site. Fieldwork included drilling a borehole through the castle mound down to the old ground surface, as well as the detailed analytical earthwork survey of the upstanding mound remains. This fieldwork was followed by a programme of scientific dating and palaeoenvironmental analysis. The results of this work indicate that the castle motte, which is over 14m high, was constructed from local geological material. Due to the poor quality of the samples retrieved from the mound for radiocarbon dating, only a minimum age for the construction of the motte has been ascertained – sometime after cal AD 689-885 (95% confidence) – and it is highly probable that the mound is later in date. The earthwork evidence indicates that the motte may originally have has a series of structures on it south-western side and was surmounted by a stone keep up to 18m in diameter. 1. INTRODUCTION AND RESEARCH BACKGROUND This report describes the initial result of archaeological investigations carried out at Berkhamsted Castle, Hertfordshire, as part of the Extending Histories: from Medieval Mottes to Prehistoric Round Mounds project (The Round Mounds project for short), a University of Reading research project funded by The Leverhulme Trust.

  • 1066-1272 Eastern Sussex Under the Norman and Angevin Kings of England
    1066-1272 Eastern Sussex under the Norman and Angevin kings of England From the Battle of Hastings through the accession of William II until the death of Henry II Introduction In this paper the relationships of the post-Conquest kings of England to Battle and eastern Sussex between 1087 and 1272 are explored. The area ‘eastern Sussex’ corresponds to that described as ‘1066 Country’ in modern tourism parlance and covers the area west to east from Pevensey to Kent and south to north from the English Channel coast to Kent. Clearly the general histories of the monarchs and associated events must be severely truncated in such local studies. Hopefully, to maintain relevance, just enough information is given to link the key points of the local histories to the kings, and events surrounding the kings. Also in studies which have focal local interest there can inevitably be large time gaps between events, and some local events of really momentous concern can only be described from very little information. Other smaller events can be overwhelmed by detail, particularly later in the sequence, when more detailed records become available and ‘editing down’ is required to keep some basic perspective. The work is drawn from wide sources and as much as possible the text has been cross referenced between different works. A list of sources is given at the end of the sequence. Throughout the texts ‘Winchelsea’ refers to ‘Old Winchelsea’ which may have only been a small fishing village in 1066, but by the 1200s had become a sizable and important, if somewhat independently minded and anarchic town, which stood on a large shingle bank east of the present Winchelsea, possibly just south of where Camber castle still stands today.
