More about this scene

Situated six miles northwest of Barnard Castle, the village takes its name from St Romald, the son of a Northumbrian king; he was born in Buckingham in about 800, his mother having taken refuge there during a war between Northumbria and Mercia. Apparently, though Romald lived for only a few days, he was said to already have the power of speech and was possessed of profound and miraculous wisdom.
