Little is known of Osberht‘s reign, though Symeon of Durham suggested he was sacrilegious in that he tried to wrest control of lands from the chuch. In 862 Aella (see below), either his bro...

    Some sources suggest Aella was Osberht’s brother, others that he was an ousider-usurper, we have taken him to be his elder brother. Aella was King of Northumbria from 862-867.

    Our Uhtred was born either at Bamburg Castle, or elsewhere in Bernicia. Malcolm II of Scotland laid siege on Durham, while king Aethelred was heavily engaged against the Danes in the south of England, so could not lend assistance. Waltheof was too old to fight, so stayed safely within Bamburgh Castle. Aelfhelm of York also chose to take no action. ...
