| Abstract: |
Re-examines published and unpublished archaeological evidence for defences at Hereford, Tamworth, Winchcombe, and Worcester. Concludes that the first three can be regarded as being of late ninth- to early-tenth-century date, but that those at Worcester may need reappraisal. Also concludes that the earlier defences sealed beneath them were more substantial than previously presumed, and that these probably dated to the eighth or very early ninth centuries. |
