Eight Days in September 1066 - 6. Legacy
The events of 1066 are often presented as the moment when England’s Scandinavian past came to an end. In Yorkshire, however, that is far too simple. The defeat of Harald Hardrada at Stamford Bridge ended the last great Scandinavian invasion, but

🤯 ‼️ Got to see the Heysham Hogback
An early medieval sculpted stone from the 10th century, thought to be a bridge between pagan Viking Norse myth and Christianity…

Finally braved the trip to the tiny church museum of Abercorn, West Lothian, to see some of the lesser-known hogbacks of Scotland (C11/C12). These sit among a significant collection of early stone sculptures (including C8 cross-shaft fragments).

A pair of gripping beasts at the end of a @govanstones.bsky.social hogback. Their jaws, legs and tails tangle in positions that have been frozen since the Viking Age. This scene seems to be mirrored at the opposite end of this hogback, but is extremely worn.
This hogback is known as Govan 5.

Two 10th century hogback tombs - Part of the wonderful collection of early medieval sculpture at Govan Old Parish Church in Glasgow. Hogbacks are generally considered as grave markers or stylised 'houses' for the dead. 📸 My own. #TombTuesday #TheGovanStones #GovanHeritageTrust
