Excerpt from A Guide to the Ancient City of Winchester: And Reminiscences of Winchester
When this city fell under the power of our Pagan ancestors, the West Saxons, all its clergy, together with its lay inhabitants, were swept away in one promiscuous slaughter. But, instead of destroy ing, the victorious Cerdic repaired the Cathedral, and turned it into a temple of his native gods, wherein he was solemnly crowned king of the West Saxons, a.d. 516.
