The name "Grundisburgh" is an Old English formation, referring to a burh or fortified place. The Burh in this case is an Iron Age fort with the remains of a rectangular Roman fort enclosure surrounding the church of St Botolph at the adjacent village of Burgh, which stands on an acclivity overlooking the valley in which Grundisburgh lies. Ekwall considered that "Grund" was probably the former name of the place, derived from the Old English word grund meaning foundation, referring to the footings of the Roman walls. Grundisburgh would then mean "the Burgh at Grund".

A clever enemy avoided battle on open ground and preferred marshy, mountainous, or forested areas for battle. The later Roman generals were able to defeat the Parthian Cataphracts by securing their flanks, The Scots did this at Bannockburn and Stirling, and in nearly all their guerilla fighting against the English, as did the Welsh to a great extent. The Swiss defeated the Austrian knights at the Battle of Morgarten (1315) by attacking the knightly army in a narrow place between an acclivity and a swamp. The peasants of Dithmarschen faced in 1500, at Hemmingstedt, the army of the Danish king.

The sense of venter as "belly" is apparent in Vitruvius 8.6: "if there be long valleys, and when it [the water] arrives at the bottom, let it be carried level by means of a low substruction as great a distance as possible; this is the part called the venter, by the Greeks koilia; when it arrives at the opposite acclivity, the water therein being but slightly swelled on account of the length of the venter, it may be directed upwards... Over the venter long stand pipes should be placed, by means of which, the violence of the air may escape. Thus, those who have to conduct water through leaden pipes, may by these rules, excellently regulate its descent, its circuit, the venter, and the compression of the air."Vitruvius, 8.6.5-6, trans GwiltMays, L., (Editor), Ancient Water Technologies, Springer, 2010. p.120.

2, pp.14-15 :"The gate leading in to Radford being opposite the lane, I past through it in the hope of being gratified with a sight of an edifice which had been the mansion house of the Harrises from the time of Edward the fourth to the present day - in this however I was disappointed, for neither house or grounds answer'd my expectations. The former was, in what I look upon in the country the worst stile of building, a front of but little extent with two deep projecting wings, towards the south however one of these wings extended itself and open'd towards a steep acclivity — nor in the latter was there any thing striking: it consisted of a fertile meadow, which was bounded on every quarter by high hills. The situation was a shelter'd one and that, as I have already noticed, was a circumstance which in former times overbalanc'd the weaker pretensions of beauty of prospect".

Landing of the British troops on 12 September Bougainville, tasked with the defence of the large area between Cap Diamant and Cap Rouge, was upstream with his troops at Cap Rouge on the night of 12 September, and missed seeing numerous British ships moving downstream. A camp of approximately 100 militia led by Captain Louis Du Pont Duchambon de Vergor, who had unsuccessfully faced the British four years previously at Fort Beauséjour, had been assigned to watch the narrow road at L'Anse-au-Foulon which followed a streambank, the Coulée Saint-Denis. On the night of 12 September and morning of 13 September, however, the camp may have contained as few as 40 men, as others were off harvesting. Vaudreuil and others had expressed their concern at the possibility of L'Anse-au-Foulon being vulnerable, but Montcalm dismissed them, saying 100 men would hold off the army until daylight, remarking, "It is not to be supposed that the enemies have wings so that they can in the same night cross the river, disembark, climb the obstructed acclivity, and scale the walls, for which last operation they would have to carry ladders.".
