Vision
To create events, activities, and cultural works inspired by and commemorating the 1100th anniversary of the peace agreement made at Eamont on 12th July 927. This agreement brought together Athelstan of Wessex thereafter the first King of the English; Constantine II of Alba; Owain of Strathclyde; Hywel of Wales; and Ealdred of Bamburgh.
The commemoration will focus on the commitment to peace and will celebrate the cultures and identities of all those present, whose peoples form the bedrock of today’s United Kingdom.
Community and partner involvement will generate a legacy, enhancing tourism, creativity, understanding of landscape and heritage, pride in place, and economic development in the Eden Valley and beyond.
