@caitlinrgreen Nicked both of those thank you! Bede was a Geordie like me you know!
@Tweets2CV Lol! Well, James Campbell has argued that he was of Lincolnshire stock originally & I have offered supporting evidence ;)
@caitlinrgreen The new Jarrow March in protest of this ethnic theft starts next Monday! I will be the County Banner holder at the front!
@Tweets2CV Hah! Jarrow < ‘at the settlement of the Gyrwe’, the Gyrwe being a S Lincs group (Crowland Abbey was 'on middan Gyrwan fenne'!) ;)
@caitlinrgreen Crowland was a midge reeking swamp! St Guthlac found only devils in residence! Angles were aristocrats too posh for mires!
@Tweets2CV lol, possibly true to a degree, but the Gyrwe were def a Fenland ppl & 1 that Bede just so happens to mention several times..! ;)
@caitlinrgreen thanks going to print these out
@T3_Stephen Fabulous aren't they--and wonderful to have them online!
@caitlinrgreen staring at map see Tadcaster and wonder were they brewing and in squares then?
@T3_Stephen ha! That I cannot answer, I fear :)
@DandyMarkjohn hah! Very nice :)
@caitlinrgreen @morangles is that's Hill map?
@MarkBrierley1 @morangles The second one was in Hill & Worthington (edd.) _Æthelbald and Offa_ (2005), the 1st not yet published, apparently
@caitlinrgreen Knocking humbly on door do you have larger photos to allow print (Shameless, I know)
@morangles I don't, but the site might be willing to provide one :) alternatively, reduce dpi to c200, resize +25%, Gaussian blur+sharpen?!
