Ancarig was a church complex, including nearby anchorite cells in 9th century England, located 40 miles from Medeshamstede.

History[edit | edit source]

In the late 9th century, the Danes raided the monastery, killing the priests, burning some cells and stationing themselves nearby to see if an anchorite would die twice, believing he was a living-dead creature. Geirmund Hel-hide met Torthred and offered him some water, as well as advice, telling him to leave the place.[1] Both Torthred and his sister Tova would manage to leave Ancarig as the Danes left pursuing Geirmund.[2]
