Decoding the Past in the Landscape: Draycot Park—Roman, Medieval, Saxon, What?

Continuing my investigation into the Anglo-Saxon land charter of Langley in Wiltshire, I make a breakthrough identifying the hamlet of Clanville as the Clinanfelde mentioned a thousand years ago. Plus deer, pottery and a hare. These history walk videos are about the English landscape in and around the south west of England (though I make the odd foray into Wales). I often use ancient charters (such as Saxon charters) to give me insight into the way the landscape was viewed in the past. But it is not the Saxons that interest me the most (though they do) but the prehistoric world and its ancient monuments, trackways and ditches. #Archaeology #oldenglishcharters #antiquarians #historywalks #britishhistory
