In Anglo-Saxon, the word "burh" refers to a fortified settlement or stronghold. It denotes a defensive enclosure, often associated with a town or a military fort, characterized by walls and barriers designed for protection. The term is linked to the concept of urban centers in early medieval England and is the origin of the modern English word "borough." Burhs were significant in the organization of Anglo-Saxon society, serving as hubs for trade, governance, and defense.
