Ancient settlement of Lower Boulsworth

According to local legend there was once a Saxon battle around the Lower Boulsworth area by Swaynes Platt and beyond. It is believed that the area could quite possibly have been the lost settlement of Brunanburh.

After extensive research certain local historians believe that there had been a large continuous civilised settlement here since the Neolithic era from which the lower track way called Willy Moor road seems to have been used as a major trade route from Dublin to York throughout time. Various artefacts including a flint processing operation were uncovered in the 19th and 20th centuries with local historian/ archaeologist T T Wilkinson mentioning in one of his books that at one point in pre Norman times a certain Chieftain called Bren or Brun was said to have lived under Boulsworth at some point.

The local area is littered with Norse history around the area of Walton Spire which lay just a mile or so west of lower Boulsworth and is thought to be of Saxon then later Norse origin. The stone monolith on Walton`s summit was restructured to become a Christian cross in the 1830`s and is thought to have been a stone marker to commemorate a long lost battle.
