Hey guys,
I'm going to be studying in London for a semester next year, and I plan on taking every opportunity I get to indulge in my passions (that is, the history of Germanic peoples and literature). That said, I need some help. Since I know a lot of you live in the UK, been to the UK, etc. I was just wondering if any of you could point me in the direction of some things.
I don't need to know the big things or anything that I would find in tour books, but little things. What I'm looking for:
- Any rune stones, big or small.
- Burial mounds/cairns
- County (shire?) museums
- Battlefields
- Roman forts/villas/walls
I'm already planning on visiting Hastings, most of the sites in Kent, Lindisfarne if I'm lucky and I'll definitely be hanging out at the British Museum for the Sutton Hoo treasure.
Any help on this would be appreciated.
