- This book (471 pages including 152 illustrations) is the product of many years of research, including three full-time years with a Leverhulme Major Research Fellowship. From a multiplicity of recent archaeological discoveries, it constructs a radically different picture of the Anglo-Saxon built environment. All written sources were reassessed. More importantly, hundreds of published and unpublished excavation reports, most of them from regions where no written sources survive, were searched and analysed. No previous scholar has integrated historical and archaeological evidence on this scale, and the book offers the starting-point for a completely new view of early England.
