A TALK on Aethelred the Unready and the South West of England is coming up in Crediton.
Dr Levi Roach will speak on the subject on Monday, September 9 from 7.30pm at the Boniface Centre following the Crediton Area History and Museum Society’s annual general meeting.
Dr Roach, who is an associate professor at the University of Exeter, has previously written a book about Aethelred the Unready.
Published in 2016, it suggests the monarch has been “wrongly maligned” and presents an “imaginative reassessment” of the Anglo-Saxon king.
