This introductory session considers the landscape of Anglo-Saxon East Anglia, before focussing on what we can glean of the nature of settlements during the Early Saxon period (5th–7th centuries) drawing upon the increasing body of excavated evidence.ġ1.40 – 12.45: Case Studies – West Stow and Carlton Colville. Such changes are exemplified by the recently published excavations at Brandon and Sedgeford, both of which help to demonstrate the complexity of the Anglo-Saxon landscape on the eve of the Norman Conquest.ġ0.15 – 11.15: ‘Home is Where the Hearth Is’ – Early Saxon Settlements. The Middle Saxon period saw dramatic changes in settlement patterns which led to the development of the East Anglian landscape as we recognise it today. The Early Saxon period is well represented by the excavated examples from Carlton Colville and West Stow, where important experimental archaeology still continues. This Study Day examines the changing nature of settlements throughout the Anglo-Saxon period, using newly excavated and recently published sites from across the region.
