Note 28 — Chapter I · SAXON AND WELSH TRADITIONS.
Reading edition
The document itself may be consulted in Graevius, vol. vii. The “littus Saxonicum per Britannias” extended at least from the Portus Adurni to Branodunum, that is, from the neighbourhood of Portsmouth to Branchester on the Wash. In both these places there were civil or military officers under the orders of the Comes littoris Saxonici.
