xii End of the Campaign of 1006. The following extract from the "Anglo-Saxon Chronicle" gives the further history of the campaign very concisely: "Then went the Danes to Wallingford, and that all burned, and were then one day in Cholsey: and they went then along Ashdown to Cuckamsley hill, and there abode, as a daring boast; for it had been often said, if they should reach Cuckamsley hill, that they would never again get to the sea: then they went homewards another way.
Then they continued their retreat along the slope of the downs, by Aston, until they reached Cuckamsley hill, where they abode as a daring boast; for it had been said that if they ever reached that spot they should never see the sea again. In the Aescendune Woods, Easter Tide, 1007.
