Excerpt from The Stone Crosses of the County of Northampton It is true that here there are not numbers of pre historic crosses, similar to those sown broadcast over Cornwall; mighty monoliths, similar to those found at Stonehenge or the smaller ones in Anglesea, Orkney, and other places or magnificent market crosses, similar to those found in many of the southern counties of England. Still, the remains of some forty churchyard, ten market, twenty village, four wayside, and five memorial crosses, with sundry boundary stones, make a total by no means insignificant. Amongst these stones are many fragments of Saxon churchyard crosses, and the interlacing patterns of the ornamentation of several of these are very interesting and uncommon, the representation of the Crucifixion at Nassington being especially worthy of notice. The cross at Cogenhoe is a beautiful and, as far as this county is concerned, a unique piece of work. Several ofthe later crosses, particularly those in the churchyardsxii preface.

All Saints’ Church, Brixworth lies 7 miles north of Northampton. The core of the church is Anglo-Saxon and the research published here provides an unprecedented account of one of the most important buildings of its period surviving in England. The building of the main body of the church was towards the end of the 8th century, with a western tower, stair turret and polygonal apse added before the end of the 9th. Major modifications were made during the early and later medieval periods. From the early 19th century the church attracted much antiquarian interest, especially by topographical draughtsmen, whose drawings are crucial to its understanding before major restoration. Reverend Charles Frederick Watkins (Vicar, 1832–1871) made a particular study of the church fabric and identified both surviving and demolished Anglo-Saxon structures. Restoration under his direction reversed most of the medieval changes he recognised within the standing fabric, leaving the church with much the same appearance as it has today. The Brixworth Archaeological Research Committee, founded in 1972, embarked on an in-depth archaeological and historical study of All Saints’. Limited excavation revealed evidence for the former extent of the cemetery and examined remains of the early structures to the north of the church, including one whose foundations cut a ditch containing 8th-century material. The later 8th-century date for the foundation of the church was confirmed by radiocarbon dates from charcoal extracted from construction mortar in the church fabric. A complete stone-by-stone survey of the standing fabric, accompanied by petrological identifications, has led to a refined appraisal of the construction sequence and the identification of ‘exotic’ stone types and Roman bricks reused from earlier buildings up to 40 km distant. The archaeological, geological and laboratory findings presented here have been amplified by contextual studies placing the church against its archaeological, architectural, liturgical and historical background, with detailed comparisons with standing and excavated buildings of similar age in north Europe and Italy.
