Ealdred was the son of Eadwulf of Bernicia Eadwulf . He was a ruler or nobleman in Northumbria in the early tenth century. Ealdred s father, called king of the Saxons of the North by the Annals of Ulster , but only Reeve England reeve of Bamburgh by the chronicler thelweard historian thelweard , died in 913. He may have been ruler of Northumbria following Eowils and Halfdan who were killed at Tettenhall circa 910. It is unknown whether the family had links to pre or post Viking kings of Northumbria . The Historia de Sancto Cuthberto states that Ealdred was a friend of King Edward the Elder , as his father had been a favourite of King Alfred the Great . Ealdred was driven from his lands, whether all of Northumbria or merely the northern part which had once been Bernicia is debated, by Ragnall ua mair , either in or before 914, or alternatively as late as 918. The Historia states that Ealdred sought refuge with Constant n mac eda , the king of Alba , and that the two fought Ragnall at the battle of Corbridge , dated by the Annals of Ulster and the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba to 918. The battle appears to have been indecisive and Ragnall remained the master of at least southern Northumbria, former Deira , or perhaps of all. In 920 the sons of Eadwulf were among those who met with Edward the Elder and, in the words of the Anglo Saxon Chronicle , chose him as father and lord . Ealdred is named as one of those present at Eamont Bridge on 12 July 927 when Edward s son thelstan met with the northern British kings. While Ealdred is nowhere certainly recorded after 927, it may be that the Annals of Clonmacnoise report his death as Adulf mcEtulfe, king of the North Saxons circa 934, although this may be another of Eadwulf s sons.

unreferenced date October 2009 The Esso Northumbria was the first of a series of VLCC Very Large Crude Carrier ships, built by Swan Hunter at Wallsend on Tyneside , in 1969. Launched on 2 May 1969 by HRH Anne, Princess Royal The Princess Anne was the largest vessel to have been built in Britain at that time. Its tonnage was 253,000 tonnes and its length was 1,350 ft. The ship was designed to carry crude oil from the Persian Gulf, and its large design was a result of the Suez Crisis , which had resulted in the closing of the Suez Canal . The ship was single hulled and was designed with relatively limited knowledge of the behaviours of such large structures at sea, being generally a straightforward scaling up of a smaller design. It was also built to a fixed price contract at a time when rampant inflation was occurring in Britain. This led to many attempts to cut costs Swan Hunter ultimately made a loss on the contract. Final cost of the ship was 6.5 million. Unfortunately the ship was plagued with problems both with its fittings and more seriously, with cracking of the hull under stress. It needed many repairs in its short working lifetime and this, together with fears of a major spill, prompted its retirement in 1982 after only 13 years in service. The ship was broken up at Kaoshiung , Taiwan . A similar fate befell its sister ship, the Hibernia , also built on Tyneside and launched in 1970.

One of the main differences between the dialects of rural Northumberland and Durham and the Geordie dialect is the more frequent elongating of vowels in Northumbrian than in Geordie, the seaside town of Amble is most famous for this occurrence. Therefore words like mam mother are pronounced as mairm and can and tab become cairn and tairb etc. Sometimes however this vowel change is sometimes shorter and becomes in effect like the letter e as in to have a wesh for to have ...

Osred was king of Northumbria from 789 to 790. He was the son of Alhred of Northumbria Alhred and Osgifu, daughter of Eadberht of Northumbria Eadberht . He succeeded lfwald I of Northumbria lfwald , son of his mother s brother Oswulf of Northumbria Oswulf , who was murdered by the patricius ealdorman Sicga . Osred, even though he united two of the competing factions in Northumbria, was king for only a year before being deposed in favour of the previously deposed thelred I of Northumbria thelred son of thelwald Moll of Northumbria thelwald Moll . Osred was then exiled, apparently to the Isle of Man . He returned from exile in 792, and the Anglo Saxon Chronicle reports that he was apprehended and slain on the eighteenth day before the calends of October. His body is deposited at Tynemouth. It is presumed that this killing was done by or for King thelred, who had had lf and lfwine, sons of lfwald, killed the previous year, and had attempted to kill Eardwulf of Northumbria Eardwulf in 790.

Osred was a child when his father died, and it is assumed that Eadwulf usurped the throne. Eadwulf s relationship, if any, to the ruling dynasty descendants of Ida of Bernicia Ida is not known, but it is quite possible that he was indeed of royal descent as two or more other branches of the Eoppingas are found as kings of Northumbria after the extinction of the main line. Initially Eadwulf appears to have had the support of ealdorman Berhtfrith son of Berhtred, presumed to be the lord of the north east frontier of Bernicia, in Lothian ..., a crisis soon arose.

Unlike his predecessor King Ricsige of Northumbria Ricsige , who may have ruled most of the kingdom of Northumbria following the expulsion of the first King Ecgberht I of Northumbria Ecgberht in 872, this Ecgberht ruled only the northern part of Northumbria, the lands beyond the River Tyne Tyne in northern England and southern Scotland .

nofootnotes date May 2009 The Northumbrian Renaissance or Northumbria s Golden Age is the name given to a period of cultural flowering in the Anglo Saxon kingdom of Northumbria , broadly speaking from the mid seventh to the mid eighth centuries. It is characterised by a blend of insular art , Germanic art and Mediterranean influence. Authors associated with this golden age include Bede and Alcuin artefacts include the Lindisfarne Gospels and associated manuscripts, the Ruthwell Cross and associated sculptures, and, arguably, the Franks Casket . An illustration of the cultural activity of Northumbria during this period is given by Alcuin s De Sanctis et Pontificibus Ecclesi Eboracensis , which gives particular attention to Bishop thelbert of York .

lfwald is said to have been king of Northumbria following the deposition of Eardwulf of Northumbria Eardwulf in 806. This information is only reported in the anonymous tract De primo Saxonum adventu and the later Flores Historiarum of Roger of Wendover . Roger states that lfwald had overthrown Eardwulf. lfwald is said to have reigned for two years and probably succeeded by Eardwulf, restored to power with the aid of the Emperor Charlemagne and Pope Leo III , although he may instead have been followed by Eardwulf s son Eanred of Northumbria Eanred rather than by Eardwulf. While written sources for lfwald s reign are late and exiguous, coins minted in his reign have survived in modest numbers. Minted at York , these were produced by a moneyer named Cuthheard, who also produced all known coins of Eardwulf s reign. Lake District Lakeland author W. G. Collingwood 1917 book The Likeness of King Elfwald A Study of Iona and Northumbria imagined the life of lfwald. The work, based on Collingwood s long study of Northumbria which led to his 1919 work Northumbrian Crosses of the pre Norman Age , was well regarded and has been reprinted.

Osred c. 697 &ndash 716 was king of Northumbria from 705 until his death. He was the son of King Aldfrith of Northumbria . Aldfrith s only known wife was Cuthburg , but it is not certainly known whether Osred was her son. Osred did not directly succeed his father as Eadwulf of Northumbria Eadwulf seized the throne, but held it for only a few months. At the time that the usurper Eadwulf was overthrown, Osred was only a child, and the government was controlled by the powerful Bishop Wilfrid , presumably assisted by Ealdorman ealdormen such as Berhtfrith son of Berhtred. Osred was adopted as Wilfrid s son at this time. Wilfrid s death in 709 appears to have caused no instability at the time, which, together with the rapid rise and more rapid fall of Eadwulf, speaks to a degree of stability and continuity in early 8th century Northumbria which would not long outlast Osred s reign. In 711 ealdorman Berhtfrith inflicted a crushing defeat on the Picts , in the area around the upper River Forth Forth , but the reign of Osred is otherwise unremarkable politically. Domestically, a variety of ecclesiastical sources portray Osred as a dissolute and debauched young man, and a seducer of nuns. More positively, Aethelwulf s De Abbatibus describes Osred as energetic in deeds and words, mighty in arms and bold in his own strength and Bede referred to him as a new Josiah .
