About Fencing in Malmesbury
Malmesbury in Wiltshire claims the distinction of being the oldest borough in England, with a charter granted by Alfred the Great around 880 AD and archaeological evidence suggesting occupation stretching back to an Iron Age fort between 800 and 500 BC. The Irish monk Maildulph established an abbey and school here in 642 AD, and one of its early students, Aldhelm, went on to become a celebrated scholar and the first Bishop of Sherborne. Malmesbury Abbey later became the burial place of Aethelstan, the first king of a united England, who died in 939, and by the time of the Norman Conquest the town was significant enough to be listed first in the Wiltshire section of the Domesday Book.
