Best Answer

The Anglo-Saxon Chronicles are several documents created by monks in various parts of Saxon England to record the major events of each year - almost like journals or diaries.

The Winchester Manuscript (Corpus Christi College ms 173) is the oldest one of the surviving documents, produced by many different monastic scribes at Old Minster, Winchester.

The Abingdon Manuscripts (now held at the British Library, London) were produced by monks at Abingdon and Canterbury.

The Worcester Manuscript (MS Cotton Tiberius B4) was produced by five monks at Worcester in the mid-11th century.

The Peterborough Manuscript (Bodleian Library ms Laud 636) was made by a single monk in 1121; another monk made additional entries for the years 1132 to 1154.

The Canterbury Bilingual Epitome (MS Cotton Domitian A8) was produced by monks at Christ Church Canterbury in about 1100.

Each document is different, concentrating on events in the local area.
