Note 235 — NETLEY ABBEY.
Reading edition
“And the wicked Ham with his people drew him towards the wood:—Arviragus followed him, and continually struck [his men] to the ground. At last he gained very little by his treason; he overtook him at a haven, and slew him right there:—it were little harm if all traitors were served so. The haven where he was slain, after Ham’s name truly, was called Hampton, as it is called yet,—for it is called Southhampton, and will be evermore.”—Robert of Gloucester’s Chronicle, ed. Hearne, p. 64.
