However, there is a document not specifically linked to Wedmore that is a Treaty of Alfred and Guthrum.
•
The Peace of Wedmore is a term used by historians for an event referred to by the monk Asser in his Life of Alfred, outlining how in 878 the Viking leader Guthrum was baptised and accepted Alfred as his adoptive father.
•
Guthrum, the Viking leader, retreated with the remnants of his army to their "stronghold", where Alfred besieged him.
•
However, some misinterpretation appears to have arisen, probably from confusing what happened at Wedmore with the later Treaty of Alfred and Guthrum.
