Event information

Offa ruled Mercia, which stretched from Chester to Dover, between 757 and 796. He cemented Mercia’s position as the dominant force in the southern part of Britain and laid the basis for a new model of kingship. In doing so, he had a lasting influence on the government and infrastructure of medieval England. And Stony Stratford was part of it!

Rory Naismith is Professor of Early Medieval History at the University of Cambridge and a Fellow of Corpus Christi College.
