History remembers Aethelflaed as King Alfred's daughter, King Edward's sister and Lord Athelred's wife.

​

Now Aethelflaed gets to tell her tale.

​

This new piece of writing remembers a woman in a man’s world doing a man’s job. A Lady who helped establish the Midlands.

​

It remembers a woman who dealt with Danes whilst dealing with a body she couldn't control.

​

Approaching fifty and dealing with the onset of the menopause, could this ageing warrior princess really be worthy of the title Lady of the Mercians or would getting old be her downfall?
