The Anglo-Saxons were the proud forebears of the English nation, laying the foundations of our language, laws, and identity. Arriving in Britain in the 5th century, they built thriving kingdoms, defended their lands with honour, and forged a culture rooted in strength, resilience, and community. Their legacy lives on in the heart of England—from ancient place names to enduring traditions. As proud descendants of these bold warriors and settlers, we honour their spirit and take patriotic pride in the rich heritage they left behind.
