Waylands Smithy gdje je, po lokalnoj berkširskoj predaji, pokopan Bascecg.

Bagsecg (također Bægsecg ili Bagsec; ? - 8. januar 871) bio je vikinški vođa, odnosno "kralj" poznat po tome što je godine 870. doveo tzv. Veliku ljetnu vojsku, odnosno pojačanje za Veliku pogansku vojsku koja je pod vikinškim vođom Halfdanom Ragnarrsonom bila osvojila veliki dio tadašnje Engleske. Bascecg, čije je ljudstvo, prema nekim izvorima došlo uglavnom iz Skandinavije, se također navodio i kao mogući kralj Danske, odnosno nasljednik Horika II. U svakom slučaju, Bascecg se smatrao dovoljnom važnim da zajedno sa Halfdanom preuzme zajedničku komandu nad pohodom na zapad Britanije, odnosno na područje države Wessex. On je u zimu 870/871. doveo do niza okršaja, uključujući bitku kod Ashdowna u kojoj su Vikinzi poraženi, a Bascecg poginuo.

Prema lokalnoj predaji je pokopan na lokalitetu Waylands Smithy, ali arheolozi navode kako tamošnje grobnice potiču iz vremena neolita.
