出典:『Wikipedia』 (2011/01/29 16:53 UTC 版)
Wulfrun was an Anglo-Saxon (early English) noble woman and landowner, who established a landed estate at Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England in 985. Contemporary knowledge of her comes from several text sources:
- Year 943 entry in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle says that Vikings seized her when they took the fort at Tamworth. [It was in all probability to obtain a ransom.]
- Listed as a witness in an Anglo-Saxon charter dated 985, which is listed as no. 650 in Kemble's "Codex Diplomaticus Ævi Saxoni". In it King Ethelred II (Ethelred the Unready), granted to Wulfrun ten hides of land at Hēatūn, which means "high or principal farm or enclosure". * It is recorded that in 994 Wulfrun gave ten hides of land to endow a church at a place called Heantune (dative case). This may be the same land as in the previous entry. The church had previously been founded as an abbey by Wulfere.
- A charter to Eynsham Monastery dated 1005 says that Wulfrun bequeathed land at Ramsey, "being at her last breath".
- The West Midlands placename Wolverhampton seems to have come from Anglo-Saxon Wulfereēantūn = "Wulfere's high or principal enclosure or farm", though some toponymists & historians attribute it to Wulfrun. Many buildings and firms in Wolverhampton are named after her, for example, The Wulfrun Centre, Lady Wulfrun (formerly 'The Goose in the city' pub), Wulfrun Hall and the Wulfrun Hotel.
