Cenred of Wessex

Cenred of Wessex was a member of the House of Wessex and a member of the direct male line from Cynric to Egbert.

It is possible that Cenred ruled alongside his son Ine for a period.

There is weak evidence for joint kingships, and stronger evidence of subkings reigning under a dominant ruler in Wessex, not long before his time.

[1] Ine acknowledges his father's help in his code of laws,[2] and there is also a surviving land-grant that indicates Cenred was still reigning in Wessex after Ine's accession.
