  • The Tale of a Fish How Westminster Abbey Became a Royal Peculiar
    The Tale of a Fish How Westminster Abbey became a Royal Peculiar For Edric it had been a bad week’s fishing in the Thames for salmon and an even worse Sunday, a day on which he knew ought not to have been working but needs must. The wind and the rain howled across the river from the far banks of that dreadful and wild isle called Thorney with some justification. The little monastic church recently built on the orders of King Sebert stood forlornly waiting to be consecrated the next day by Bishop Mellitus, the first Bishop of London, who would be travelling west from the great Minster of St Paul’s in the City of London. As he drew in his empty nets and rowed to the southern bank he saw an old man dressed in strange and foreign clothing hailing him. Would Edric take him across even at this late hour to Thorney Island? Hopeful for some reward, Edric rowed across the river, moaning to the old man about the poor fishing he had suffered and received some sympathy as the old man seemed to have had some experience in the same trade. After the old man had alighted and entered the little church, suddenly the building was ablaze with dazzling lights and Edric heard chanting and singing and saw a ladder of angels leading from the sky to the ground. Edric was transfixed. Then there was silence and darkness. The old man returned and admonished Edric for fishing on a Sunday but said that if he caste his nets again the next day into the river his reward would be great.

  • Halesworth Area History Notes
    Halesworth Area History Notes I. HALESWORTH IN THE 11 th CENTURY Modern Halesworth was founded during the Middle Saxon period (650AD=850AD), and probably situated on the side of a ridge of sand and gravel close to the Town River. The evidence we have of early Halesworth includes a row of large post-holes, a burial of possibly a male of middle age radio-carbon dated to 740AD, and a sub-circular pit containing sheep, pig and ox bones. The ox bones show evidence of butchery. Sherds of ‘Ipswich Ware’ pottery found near the post-holes suggest trading links with the large industrial and mercantile settlement of Ipswich. It is now thought likely that ‘Ipswich Ware’ did not find its way to North Suffolk until after about 720AD. Perhaps Halesworth was also a dependent settlement of the Royal Estate at Blythburgh. By the 11 th century the settlement had moved to the top of the ridge east of the church. It’s possible that ‘Halesuworda’ had become a strategic crossing place where the Town River and its marshy flood plain, were narrow enough to be crossed. Perhaps Halesworth was also a tax centre for the payment of geld, as well as a collecting point for produce from the surrounding countryside with craft goods, agricultural produce and food rents moving up and down the river between Halesworth, Blythburgh and the coastal port of Dunwich. At the time of the Norman Conquest ‘Halesuworda’ consisted of a rural estate held by Aelfric, and two smaller manors whose freemen were under the patronage of Ralph the Constable and Edric of Laxfield.
