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 limited evidence for joint kingships, and a stronger evidence of subkings reigning under a dominant ruler in Wessex not long before his time. Ine acknowledged his father's help in his code of laws, and there is also a surviving land-grant that indicates Cenred was still reigning in Wessex after Ine's accession.
