- The area was once heavily settled by Vikings of largely Danish in origin, and they have left behind a great legacy. This is a summary of a talk - attended by a sell-out 100 people - given at the Church of St John the Baptist, Melton on Friday 8th November as part of the appeal to raise funds for a Community Centre. It covered the extensive place name and archaeological evidence, the exciting search to locate their place of Assembly or "Thing" site, and what DNA they may have bequeathed to the people of today. Please see the end of the video for how you can donate to the Appeal.
