Archaeologists have discovered remnants of a 1,300-year-old Anglo Saxon feasting hall just inches below a village green in the south-eastern corner of England. The team found evidence that suggests elite Anglo Saxons gathered there to enjoy food and drink in what's described as "a pretty lively gathering probably fueled by lots of meade (& wine) probably drunk from colorful and prestigious glass vessels."
