User:Franklydude/The Danish Camp

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Danish Camp, in Willington, Bedfordshire, is a restauarnt on the bank of the Great River Ouse; it is also the location of an ancient moated site. The name Danish Dock[1] or Danish Camp became associated with the site because the Vikings are known to have been active in the area, using the River Great Ouse. However, there is no evidence of use of Danish Camp by the Danes, excavations date it from the 11th century; approximately a hundred years after the Battle of Bedford.
