    Woden’s Barrow (NGR SU 113 634) is the first documented battle-site to be considered in the course of this project. The following observations outline some initial findings relating to the site and its associated archaeology, topography and landscape features which are suggestive of links between landscape, ritual and warfare.

    Woden’s barrow (OE Wodnesbeorg) is a neolithic long-barrow on the Ridgeway [fig 2, A]. It is named as the location of two separate battles in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle (Anglo-Saxon Chronicles, Winchester Manuscript, 20 and 42, in Swanton.):

    Thomas C. Williams, Sr., a late-19th-century Richmond College trustee and donor, amassed considerable wealth through tobacco manufacturing enterprises of “world-wide reputation,” becoming “one of the two or three most wealthy men in Richmond.”1 As a Richmond College trustee, Williams provided funds at crucial times and exhibited a strong interest in the lag program. He began his career in the 1850s as a clerk in the tobacco business of Richmond College founding Trustee James Thomas, Jr. (1806-1886); established the tobacco firm Patterson & Williams & Company with Richard A.
