  • Geophysics in the Minster Environs, Warminster, Wiltshire, 2014
    Geophysics in the Minster Environs, Warminster, Wiltshire, 2014. Mat Charlton and John Oswin with contributions from Mark Corney Bath and Camerton Archaeological Society & Artefact it Ltd i Abstract As part of the Warminster Heritage Lottery project, a number of geophysical surveys using resistance and magnetometry techniques were conducted on various sites in the northern portion of Warminster town in Wiltshire, the research aim being to search for signs of occupation pre-dating the development of the mediaeval market town. The survey would also look for any possible church buildings away from the present minster church, which is predominantly a Victorian rebuild? The sites were the only open spaces available, but those of any size were in use as school playing fields, which had undergone grading and so rearranged the topsoil. Nonetheless, there were a number of indications of possible earlier settlement, although these appeared to be prehistoric rather than pre-Norman. These could be on dry terrace or right down on the flood plain of the Were Stream. Limited surveying close to the church and observation of architectural features, suggested that any previous Minster church was most likely to be under or very close to the present church.

    2 In memory of Jeffrey Martin Whittock (1927–2013), much-loved and respected father and papa. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of people provided valuable advice which assisted in the preparation of this book; without them, of course, carrying any responsibility for the interpretations offered by the book. We are particularly indebted to our agent Robert Dudley who, as always, offered guidance and support, as did Simon Hamlet and Mark Beynon at The History Press. In addition, Bradford-on-Avon library, and the Wiltshire and the Somerset Library services, provided access to resources through the inter-library loans service. For their help and for this service we are very grateful. Through Hannah’s undergraduate BA studies and then MPhil studies in the department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at Cambridge University (2008–12), the invaluable input of many brilliant academics has shaped our understanding of this exciting and complex period of history, and its challenging sources of evidence. The resulting familiarity with Old English, Old Norse and Insular Latin has greatly assisted in critical reflection on the written sources. As always, the support and interest provided by close family and friends cannot be measured but is much appreciated. And they have been patient as meal-time conversations have given way to discussions of the achievements of Alfred and Athelstan, the impact of Eric Bloodaxe and the agendas of the compilers of the 4 Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 5 CONTENTS Title Dedication Acknowledgements Introduction 1 The Gathering

  • A Topography of Alfred's Wars in Wessex
    A TOPOGRAPHY OF ALFRED'S WARS IN WESSEX. By the late DR. J. P. WILLIAMS-FREEMAN. HE field archaeologist must not expect to find any defensive earthwork enclosures of early Saxon make : their stronghold Twas the stockade of wood which has left no trace except in the place-name suffix. As regards the protection of their dwellings there are, however, in the eastern counties numerous little wet moats, mostly square and only large enough to contain a small- wooden house and yard, which are often called Saxon and very likely may be so. They are easily to be distinguished from the larger and more important mediaeval or Elizabethan moated houses which succeeded the residential castle. A few are to be found in the low-lying parts of Wessex, one or two large enough, to • contain a farmhouse, and it is quite possible that coins or pottery may some day give proof of their Saxon date. Even so I doubt if they were earlier than the 9th century. Strong linear earthworks, however, the Saxons certainly did make, both long tribal frontiers and short cross-corridor entrench­ ments, as well as, in all probability, some of the minor banks and ditches. The pitched battles both of Saxons and Danes seem to have been open fights with shock tactics, desperate charges and hand- to-hand contests, though in the long campaigns between the two one must suppose they made temporary stockaded camps which must have necessitated some earthwork if only a " palisade trench." None of the minor earthworks which are so common all over the country have, so far as I know, been proved to be definitely related with their battle sites, at any rate in Wessex.
