Hi Ringrose,

Ankerwycke is the name of a farm and a priory in Wraysbury.  They can both be found on the north bank of the Thames opposite Cooper's Hill at Runnymede.  It is reputed that this may the place where the Magna Carta was signed.  There is a yew tree there, which has a preservation order on it.

If you use the following site:

and search for Magna Carta Lane in Wraysbury, you will find its location.

Hope that helps.
