Councils of Clovesho
The Councils of Clovesho or Clofesho were a series of synods attended by Anglo-Saxon kings, bishops, abbots and nobles in the 8th and 9th centuries. They took place at an unknown location in the Kingdom of Mercia.
== Location ==
The location of the place-name Clovesho has never been conclusively identified. Scholars believe that Clovesho must have been located in the kingdom of Mercia, or close to it, and close enough to the sees of the southern English bishops to travel to. It has been described by Clifford Offer as "the most famous lost place in Anglo-Saxon England".〔By Clifford Offer, quoted by Slater & Goose below〕
The strongest candidate for the location of Clovesho has long been Brixworth in Northamptonshire, where the surviving Anglo-Saxon church of All Saints' Church, Brixworth is indicative of the importance of the settlement during the Anglo-Saxon period. Alternative locations have included Hitchin, Herfordshire, which has recently been suggested,〔Slater, Terry and Goose, Nigel. (''A county of small towns: the development of Hertfordshire's urban landscape to 1800'' ), p. 191, 2008, Univ of Hertfordshire Press, ISBN 1-905313-44-6, ISBN 978-1-905313-44-0〕 as well as Cliffe (previously called Cliffe-at-Hoo), Abingdon〔Appendix to the ''Antiquities of the Anglo-Saxon Church''.〕 and Tewkesbury.〔''Saxons in England, II, 191.〕 Arthur West Haddan and William Stubbs consider these theories to be based upon unreliable evidence.〔''Councils and Ecclesiastical Documents'', III, 121, n.〕
The Councils' dates and their Acts are known. Those Councils of Clovesho for which authentic evidence exists are those of 742, 747, 794, 798, 803, 824 and 825.
