Overview
Compilation of the database began in the early 1980s as an in-house tool to help staff and students in our consultancy to provide reports for clients. Over the years, as knowledge of its existence spread and enquiries started to flow in, it became obvious that it had a use outside our unit, amongst both researchers and re-enactors. In order to make it more useful to others, a site gazetteer has been added.
Searches can be made by selecting variables from the drop-down menus, or by selecting the Free Text option and typing in your own terms. To access information about individual sites, select a site name from the drop-down menu, search, click on any ID number and then on the site name.
Information in the date fields has been taken from the relevant publications, and many of the dates in the older publications will need to be regarded with caution. The phasing of the Early Anglo-Saxon period is at present in the process of revision and the dates will be replaced as new information becomes available. There are plans to expand and update the database annually, and if anyone notices any mistakes in the data, corrections may be sent to the depositor.
