THE BATTLE OF DYRHAM TOOK PLACE NEAR THIS SITE IN 577 AD. TWO SAXONS, CUTHWINE AND CAEWLIN FOUGHT THE BRITONS AND KILLED THREE KINGS, CONMAIL, CONDIDON AND FARINMAIL. SO DOING, THEY TOOK THE CITIES OF BATH, CIRENCESTER AND GLOUCESTER. Erected by Sodbury and District Historical Society http://www.chippingsodbury.org/index.htm The Britons were eventually driven out by the Saxons and took refuge in Wales.
