Quote:I can't be so unequivocal about any of the assumptions being made.
The matter of the 'cavalry dash' (or lack of it) is one of the few things I feel we can be certain about in this topic.
It's an important point too: if we accept that Paulinus had his army with him in London, the potential shape of the campaign changes considerably from the Haverfield/Webster model. If we do not, and fall back on the (unevidenced) 'dash' idea, then the battle was almost certainly in the Midlands. As you know, I prefer to follow the very convincing arguments put forward by Nick Fuentes and Steve Kaye on the subject.
