Some Ware History

Archaeological discoveries have shown that Ware has been occupied since at least the Mesolithic period, this period ended about 4000 BC. The Romans had a large settlement in Ware and remains of several buildings, including a temple, and two cemeteries have been found. A very well preserved Roman skeleton of a teenage girl has also been found in Ware. Ware was on Ermine Street, the Roman road from London to Lincoln. It has been said that Ware is one of the oldest continuously occupied sites in the whole of Europe.

The modern name of Ware dates from Anglo-Saxon times when weirs were built to stop the invading Vikings from escaping in their longships, after being defeated by Alfred the Great in a battle near Ware. Ware was also a great coaching town, being on the Old North Road, less than a days journey from London. In the 17th century Ware became the source of the New River, constructed to bring fresh water to London.

The Tudor Queen, Mary I had Thomas Fust burnt at the stake in Ware for refusing to convert to Catholicism.

The Ware Mutiny occurred in 1647, between the First and the Second English Civil War at Corkbush Field, when soldiers were ordered to sign a declaration of loyalty to Thomas Fairfax, the commander-in-chief of the New Model Army, and the Army Council. When some with Leveller sympathies refused to do this they were arrested, and one of the ringleaders, Private Richard Arnold, was court-martialled and shot.
