I am currently working on a monograph on the reeve (gerefa) in early medieval England (under contract with Boydell & Brewer).
My research interests are: early medieval England (C9 – C11), diplomatic, law and administration, pre-Conquest English culture and prosopography, Northumbria in the eleventh century, pre-Conquest estate management, the church in pre-Conquest England, early medieval urban history, historiography, the horse in the ancient and medieval worlds and Anglo-Norman culture (particularly in the second half of the eleventh century).
