This electronic version is has been made available by kind permission of the Hampshire Field Club and Archaeological Society http://www.fieldclub.hants.org.uk/ ABSTRACT This paper focuses on the context of the promulgation of the first ‘national’ lawcode of King Athelstan at Grateley (c.925x30; probably 926x7). A localised context allows a consideration of the arrangements of the royal resources which supplied the Anglo-Saxon ‘national’ assembly, the witangemot. In so doing, the paper looks at royal estate organisation in Andover hundred in north- western Hampshire, making a case for the significance of Andover itself. Finally, the role of the landscape in the political ritual of lawmaking is discussed.

For the most part, the question of the royal territory—arguably an early area under discussion is an undulating chalk royal territory—in the expression of authority on downland landscape to which some distinctive a ‘national’ scale.
