| The Anglo-Saxons in Bidford |
 | The Anglo-Saxon cemetery at Bidford lies close to the ford where the Roman Ryknild Street crossed the Avon. Following the most recent excavations in 1990 by the Warwickshire Museum over 200 burials and 32 cremations are known. For two centuries from 500 AD this was the burial place of the local farming community, with men, women and children all found in the cemetery. | |
