< Slide 14 - Bucgan'ora >

So, what about Bucgan'ora.


The settlement was established as a fishing and farming community around 680 BCS 10th and was known as Bucgan'ora which means Bucge’s shore, bank or landing place.


The earliest land deeds were recorded in the bōcland, the Saxon charter of land tenure.  


Unchartered lands were known as folcland, or the commoner’s land, known as commons.


The first recorded history was in the Domesday Book of 1086 which referred to the land of Sūþsexe, meaning South Saxons.  


In the 7th century it was part of the Saxon Heptarchy of 7 emerging Kingdoms, covering what we know today as England.


From the Anglo Saxon Chronicle

A.D. 678. This year appeared the comet-star in August, and shone every morning, during three months, like a sunbeam (? Comet Lemmon: reached its closest point to Earth on October 21, 2025, and its best visibility was during the week of October 20, 2025).

A.D. 685. This year there was in Britain a bloody rain, and milk and butter were turned to blood.

Etymology

'Bucge's ora or bank.' The 1248 form is due to confusion with Bignor infra 124. There is no doubt that the normal development of this name would have been to Bugnor (the forms with o in ME are spelling-forms with o for u ) and that pronunciation is perhaps suggested by Greenwood's spelling. The modem form is probably in part a spelling pronunciation and in part a piece of would-be polite English.

From the Anglo Saxon Chronicle


A.D. 678. This year appeared the comet-star in August, and shone every morning, during three months, like a sunbeam. Bishop Wilfrid being driven from his bishopric by King Everth, two bishops were consecrated in his stead, Bosa over the Deirians, and Eata over the Bernicians. About the same time also Eadhed was consecrated bishop over the people of Lindsey, being the first in that division. 

A.D. 679. This year Elwin was slain, by the river Trent, on the spot where Everth and Ethelred fought. This year also died St. Etheldritha; and the monastery of Coldingiham was destroyed by fire from heaven. 

A.D. 680. This year Archbishop Theodore appointed a synod at Hatfield; because he was desirous of rectifying the belief of Christ; and the same year died Hilda, Abbess of Whitby. 

A.D. 681. This year Trumbert was consecrated Bishop of Hexham, and Trumwin bishop of the Picts; for they were at that time subject to this country. This year also Centwin pursued the Britons to the sea. 

A.D. 684. This year Everth sent an army against the Scots, under the command of his alderman, Bright, who lamentably plundered and burned the churches of God. 

A.D. 685. This year King Everth commanded Cuthbert to be consecrated a bishop; and Archbishop Theodore, on the first day of Easter, consecrated him at York Bishop of Hexham; for Trumbert had been deprived of that see. The same year Everth was slain by the north sea, and a large army with him, on the thirteenth day before the calends of June. He continued king fifteen winters; and his brother Elfrith succeeded him in the government. Everth was the son of Oswy. Oswy of Ethelferth, Ethelferth of Ethelric, Ethelric of Ida, Ida of Eoppa. About this time Ceadwall began to struggle for a kingdom. Ceadwall was the son of Kenbert, Kenbert of Chad, Chad of Cutha, Cutha of Ceawlin, Ceawlin of Cynric, Cynric of Cerdic. Mull, who was afterwards consigned to the flames in Kent, was the brother of Ceadwall. The same year died Lothhere, King of Kent; and John was consecrated Bishop of Hexham, where he remained till Wilferth was restored, when John was translated to York on the death of Bishop Bosa. Wilferth his priest was afterwards consecrated Bishop of York, and John retired to his monastery (21) in the woods of Delta. This year there was in Britain a bloody rain, and milk and butter were turned to blood.
