Quote:So I think the site is at Long Hanborough ( Kaye's site# 47 ) But is this only because I live North of Oxford? In other words, it could only have been ''in my back yard''!This reminds me of a comment made by Dudley and Webster, both then (I think) based in Birmingham (Donald R. Dudley & Graham Webster, The Rebellion of Boudicca, London 1962, p. 152):
"The British antiquary clings firmly to the belief that all historical events can be placed on the map, and that most of them happened in his own county . . . The present authors, it will be seen, follow the tradition of the British antiquary."
Michael King Macdona
And do as adversaries do in law, -
Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
(The Taming of the Shrew: Act 1, Scene 2)
