Some Chipping Sodbury Cottages

On the eastern escarpment, towards the southern end of the Cotswolds lie the "Sodburys; Chipping, Old & Little. Occupation of this land stretches back to at least 1000 B.C. Known to the Saxons as "Soppan Byag" = Soppan`s Land, the land was granted to Eanbald in 500 AD and by the Conquest was one of the estate`s confiscated from Eorl Britric and was given to William de Gros a relation, by marriage, to William the Conqueror. At Little Sodbury is to be found a hill-fort (the fort is on private land so access is limited), Ancient British in origin the fort has played host to several armies; the Romans modified it for their own use; the Saxons camped here before the Battle of Dyrham in 577 and during the "Wars of the Roses", Edward IV used it just before the Battle of Tewkesbury in 1471.
