New Sarum 1086-1269 – ONLINE Talk by Chris Daniell

Thursday, June 15, 2023 

Between 1146 and 1220 there are eight references to ‘Old Salisbury’, or more puzzling the plural ‘Old Salisburies’.

This talk will assess the occurrences and make the case that Old Salisbury was an Anglo-Saxon Hundredal meeting place. The talk will then look at the development of New Sarum and propose two major phases. The first phase included the Close and a smaller secular settlement, and then the second phase, only a few years later, saw the development of the full Medieval layout of the city.

On-line lecture. Pre-booking essential

£9 Members; £12 Non-members

This is a fundraising talk for Salisbury Museum (registered charity no 289850)
