The Liberty of Whitby Strand
The medieval abbey at Whitby, North Yorkshire, controlled a jurisdictional immunity from royal administration, which was territorial and was known as the Liberty of Whitby Strand. Since Frederick William Maitland, historians have analysed such jurisdictional immunities as an index of royal authority and power. However, the surviving documentation for jurisdictional immunities means that it is often difficult to establish precisely when they were …

The Material Fall of Roman Britain, 300–525 CE, by Robin Fleming
An arresting observation introduces Robin Fleming’s fascinating study of the ending of Roman Britain: ‘No other period in Britain’s prehistory or history witnessed the loss of so many classes of once-common objects, and these disappearances triggered fundamental changes in the structures of everyday life’ (p. 6). Of course, the visible material and social differences between Roman and post-Roman Britain have attracted a lot of previous attention.…
Planning in the Early Medieval Landscape, by John Blair, Stephen Rippon and Christopher Smart
This fascinating book sets out a deceptively straightforward argument: ‘that certain settlements and building complexes, in certain periods (c.600–800 and then c.940–1000), were laid out in accordance with geometrically accurate grids, the work of surveyors in the tradition of the Roman agrimensores’ (p. xiii). Yet even to conceive of this idea required substantial effort. First, it was necessary to take an imaginative leap and wonder whether the…
The social history of a medieval fish weir, c. 600–2020
This article presents the longue durée social history of a medieval fish weir. It reveals the significant role of fishing and fish weirs in the construction and reconstruction of social structures and cultural identities. It focuses on an enigmatic annual ceremony – the construction of the Horngarth or Penny Hedge at Whitby, North Yorkshire. The article begins by arguing that the ceremony descends from the construction of a medieval intertidal fi…

Perceptions of the Prehistoric in Anglo-Saxon England
Rural Settlements and Society in Anglo-Saxon England, by Helena Hamerow
Since Philip Rahtz summarised the evidence for Anglo-Saxon rural settlements in D.M. Wilson (ed.), The Archaeology of Anglo-Saxon England (1976), there has been an avalanche of new material. Helena Hamerow’s new book is not quite the first new synthesis and analysis of that evidence. It builds on her Early Medieval Settlements: The Archaeology of Rural Communities in North-West Europe, 400–900 (2002; rev. ante, cxviii [2003], 1304–5), which broug…
The Archaeology of the East Anglian Conversion – By Richard Hoggett
The Christianization of the Anglo-Saxons c.597-c.700
Previous studies, Marilyn Dunn observes, have tended to approach the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons from a Christian perspective. Instead, she sets out to reconstruct Anglo-Saxon paganism on its own terms and to consider the encounter between paganism and Christianity c.597–c.700. Three broad conceptual distinctions underpin her analysis. The first is drawn from the sociology of Max Weber and the theology of Gustav Mensching: the contrast between…

Byrhtferth of Ramsey
Thanks in large part to Michael Lapidge, scholars now recognise Byrhtferth of Ramsey as an important author. He has reconstructed Byrhtferth's prose style and thereby secured his authorship of previously anonymous works. Among Byrhtferth's credits are the Glossae in Bedam (980s–990s), a Computus (988–996), the Passio SS Æthelberhti et Æthelredi (after c.991), the Vita Oswaldi (997x1002), the Enchiridion (1004x1016, writing in 1011), the Vita Ecgw…
Angel Veneration on Anglo-Saxon Stone Sculpture from Dewsbury (West Yorkshire), Otley (West Yorkshire) and Halton (Lancashire)
Three fragments of stone sculpture — from Dewsbury and Otley in West Yorkshire, and Halton in Lancashire — preserve images of an angel and attendant figure, perhaps a monk or mass-priest. All three fragments apparently belonged to monuments including further figural images with clear pastoral resonance: narrative images of the life and ministry of Christ, or images of the evangelists or apostles. While an absolute date cannot be supplied for the …
Corpus of Anglo‐Saxon Stone Sculpture, Volume VIII
Episcopal Culture in Late Anglo-Saxon England
Two historiographical observations underpin this book. Firstly, ‘the history of the late Anglo-Saxon episcopate as a whole has never been the subject of a full-length study’ (p. 2). Secondly, studies have relied ‘to one degree or another on Anglo-Norman views in their assessments of the Anglo-Saxon Church in general and the construction of holiness in particular’ (p. 4). Contemporary evidence for the late Anglo-Saxon episcopate is patchy in its c…

Historic Parishes of England and Wales
According to the authors, Historic Parishes of England and Wales aims to provide one possible solution to 'a major lacuna militating against the effective exploitation of many post-medieval to mid-Victorian historical sources collected by local administrative areas.' That is 'the lack of information on the boundaries of those administrative areas: the so-called "historic" or "ancient" parishes of England and Wales.' There is no doubt that this is…
