Kemble Website

The Kemble website was set up in 1997, on a server at Trinity College, Cambridge, and was developed in association with the British Academy/Royal Historical Society Joint Committee on Anglo-Saxon Charters. It was re-designed, still on the Trinity server, in 2005.  In 2010 the decision was taken to transfer the website from Trinity College to the Managed Web Service (MWS) operated by the University Computing Service (UCS) at the University of Cambridge. 

The pages can be edited and developed by those given the requisite form of access, for particular purposes and for the common good. Several of those working in this field, and in adjacent fields, are involved; their separate contributions are acknowledged on the pages in question. Of its nature, the website remains in a continuous state of development.

The original 'Kemble' website was redesigned in 2005 by Ms Emma Connolly (Mrs Baker), who was responsible thereafter for the development of the database of Anglo-Saxon charters on single sheets (using the images which had been collected by the BA/RHS charters project up to that date). She was also responsible for the establishment and design of the 'new' Kemble website in August-September 2010, and for its further development in September-October 2011. Her work for the project has been supported hitherto by grants from the British Academy, through the Joint Committee on Anglo-Saxon Charters, and hereafter from other sources.
