It's FUN FACT FRIDAY! Did you know that 'Weald' is one of the longest lasting regional names in Britain?

Termed 'Anderida silva' by the Romans, the High Weald was referred to as 'Andredesleah' (‘leah’ suggesting wood pasture) in the AngloSaxon Chronicle.

It was later described as 'Andredesweald' - the high forest of Andred.

This was shortened to Weald in Saxon charters; sometimes associated with 'weald-bera' or 'den-bera' – a right to feed swine in the forest.

The High Weald is a cultural landscape, shaped by people since prehistory to the present day.

Its key landscape features were established by the 14th century and it is considered to be one of the best surviving, coherent medieval landscapes in Northern Europe.
