Wyvern Gardens, Dore
Wyvern Gardens is a cul-de-sac leading off Bushey Wood Road with views across the Sheaf valley. The houses here are much newer than those on Bushey Wood Road or Furniss Avenue to the south, so this is evidently an infill development. The Wyvern name has a strong association with Dore going back to the 9th century when the area was at the boundary between the kingdoms of Mercia and Northumbria. In 829 Mercia had recently been conquered by the King of Wessex and it was here at Dore that the Northumbrians accepted the primacy of Wessex and King Ecgbert as overlord of all England. The wyvern was the war emblem of Wessex.
