Nennius (800 CE) mentions the Celtic fort of Caer-Anderida which is Pevensey ( Latin Anderitum) in Sussex.
King Aelle is mentioned by Bede (673? -735 CE) as an important warrior king and later sources credit him with the founding of a South Saxon Kingdom (Sussex) in the late 5th century.
Pevensey Timeline Project
Pevensey Bay Life is supporting the Pevensey Timeline. The project aims to become a national resource that will bring visitors flocking to an online portal that will tell the story of Pevensey and its unique place in the history of the country. Taster entries to the timeline are published by Bay Life on a weekly basis.
