Abstract:
The layout of the village suggests it was a planned settlement and dated from the Middle Saxon period or earlier, with the church, royal manor and manorial farm placed next to a large oval green. Brampton was of importance; it hosted at least five early medieval kings who hunted in the adjacent royal forest. The manor was also strategically significant with William I using it as the base (with both his court and army present) for the removal of Hereward the Wake from the Isle of Ely. Cartographic, documentary and archaeological evidence show that post-medieval manorial farm buildings were within the western part of the subject site. An archaeological evaluation to the west has shown it is very likely the foundations of some of these buildings and associated structures will have survived under later deposits.
