  • The Lost Church of St Botolph
    The Lost Church of St Botolph St Botolph was a 7th-century East Anglian saint, traditionally associated with the pre-Conquest monastic community at Icanho (probably Iken near Snape in Suffolk). This monastery was allegedly destroyed in Viking raids and the saint’s relics were then removed in the 10th century (although Pestell contends that the story of the destruction may have merely been justification for the removal - Pestell 2004, 91). The translation of the relics ultimately entailed the splitting of the body into three parts for distribution to different monastic establishments: the head went to Ely, the middle part to Thorney, and the remainder to Westminster. In London, four churches were dedicated to the saint: St Botolph’s Aldgate, Aldersgate, Bishopsgate and Billingsgate. All the London churches were located next to gateways in the city wall, even Billingsgate where the foundations of the lost church were excavated in the 1980s next to river access through the remains of the Roman riverside wall. This association with boundaries seems to have been common by the end of the 11th century and indeed St Botolph Billingsgate was where merchants from Flanders, Normandy and the Rhineland paid tolls. Even churches abroad, such as St Botolph in Viborg, Denmark, were located at the boundary of the medieval town (Morris 1989, 219). The position of the lost St Botolph in Norwich therefore is intriguing. The earliest known documentary reference to the Norwich church is in the later 13th century when it is referred to as (Ecclesia) Sancti Botulphi (Sandred and Lindström 1989, 36) but it seems very probable that the church existed before 1066.

  • St Botolph's Update #13 (20Th June)
    Update #13 The Feast of St Botolph Welcome to this thirteenth edition of ‘Update’, keeping you updated during these difficult times… THE FEAST DAY OF ST BOTOLPH St Botolph was one of the earliest and most revered of East Anglian saints, and became known as the patron saint of wayfarers. Botolph and his brother Adolph were young Saxon nobles living in the 600s, and were sent for their education to a Benedictine Abbey in France. Adolph rose to be a Dutch Bishop, whilst Botolph came back to his native East Anglia. He was given, by King Anna, a grant of land on which to build a monastery. This land was at Icanhoh, a site that has been said to be the present Boston (Botolph's Town)in Lincolnshire but is more likely to have been Iken, near Aldeburgh in Suffolk. Certainly Icanhoh was in a marshland area, for Botolph was said to have expelled the swamps of their ‘Devils’ (in fact, he probably had the marshes drained and eliminated the ‘marsh gas’ with its night glow). St Botolph died after a long life of Christian endeavour and teaching in 680. The monastery lived on for two centuries more but in 870 was destroyed by Danish invaders. King Edgar (963-967) ordered that the remains of the saint be taken from the monastery ruins, and be divided into three parts: the head to be taken to Ely, the middle to be taken to Thorney, and the remainder to be taken to Westminster Abbey. The relics were brought to London through various towns and eventually through the four City gates of Aldersgate, Bishopsgate, Aldgate and Billingsgate.
