Summary
The location of the Anglo-Saxon burial ground at Sutton Hoo, on a ridge overlooking the estuary of the river Deben, has always appeared strange and challenging. In this extended meditation on the geography of a very special and evocative place, Tom Williamson explores the meaning of the cemetery's location.
