Wirral Archaeology were pleased to host members of the Battlefield Trust on 18th September to an event to discuss the Battle of Brunanburh.

 

Speakers included

 

Dave Capener author of “Brunanburh and the Routes to Dingesmere”

Chas Jones author of “Finding Fulford- The Search for the First Battle of 1066”

Stephen Harding author of “Ingimunds Saga – Viking Wirral” and “Viking Mersey”

Peter Jenkins from Wirral Archaeology

 

Attendees were also taken for a walking tour around Storeton and were treated to a display of  replica weapons and tools by members of Wirhalh Skip Felagr along with some finds made locally by Wirral Archaelogy.

 

The event has received great feedback and was hopefully thought provoking to those attending.
