- (doing this in English as I don't know Anglosaxon) The Latin name ("Durnovarium") makes me suspect that this is supposed to be Dorchester ("Durnovaria"), which would also be more logical etymologically. If that's correct, this page should be combined with Dornƿaraceaster (although there is not much there to combine it with). - Andre Engels 17:41, 20 Mǣdmōnaþ 2009 (UTC)
- My mistake: not Durnovarium but Durobriuae (a common Latinised-British name). I will fix it.

- Hmmm... I should have known it wasn't Dorchester, as that is nowhere near Huntingdonshire. An interwiki link to a correct page has now been added. - Andre Engels 06:04, 21 Mǣdmōnaþ 2009 (UTC)
