Current Archaeology 440 In this issue:

This month’s cover article explores the findings of a recent community project that has rewritten the history of two West Sussex villages, Burpham and Wepham. The former’s name refers to a burh that was thought to have been founded under Alfred the Great – but the excavation’s findings have added fascinating new details to our understanding of the origins and evolution of these defences.

Thanks to the research described above, the promontory fort at Burpham can now be linked to two significant periods of medieval conflict – and our second feature continues this theme, examining perhaps the most famous battle to take place on English soil (and its most famous depiction). Having recently visited the British Museum’s spectacular new Bayeux Tapestry exhibition, here we examine what the images preserved in this iconic embroidery can tell us, not about kings and conquerors, but about the experiences of ordinary men and women in 11th-century England.
