• Herefordshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-02-12. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Herefordshire as follows: Herfordshire is only English county wholly west of the Severn. It is also possibly England's most rural county. Indeed it is said that outside Hereford and Leominster the population has not increased since the Middle Ages. The hills are rugged green pasture, with deep river valleys along which the shire's villages are found. The foothills of Brecknockshire's Black Mountains begin in western Herefordshire, some standing at 2,000 feet. East of them the land comes in a number of great northwest-southeast folds, including the famous Golden Valley. The very east of the county rises into the whaleback of the Malvem Hills, forming the border with Worcestershire. The major river of Herefordshire is the Wye, which runs from Clifford next to the bounds of Radnorshire down to Hereford then writhes toward Ross-on-Wye before running out of the county. The …

• Bedfordshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-12-20. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Bedfordshire as follows: Bedfordshire is a relatively small county in the southern Midlands. It is largely low-lying, though the Chiltern Hills also reach into the southern part of the county. The chief river is the Great Ouse, which snakes through the county, producing very fertile country, and on whose banks lies the county town, Bedford. In area, most of the county is agricultural. However there are several large towns and industrial development around many towns. The main town is Luton, an industrial town with a major airport. Bedford itself, is smaller, but a thriving town nevertheless. While no "New Towns" were planted in Bedfordshire, Bedford, Luton and several towns have been the subject of similar planned expansion, influenced by the A1, which runs through the centre of the county, and the M1 in its south. Nevertheless, away from the main towns Bedfordshire …

• Cornwall place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-09-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Cornwall as follows: The Royal Duchy of Cornwall is in the very southwest of Britain. Land's End is the westernmost point of mainland England, and the Lizard its southernmost. Twenty-eight miles southwest of Land's End lie the Isles of Scilly. Cornwall is triangular in shape, surrounded to the north and south by the sea and on the east by the River Tamar, which forms the border with Devon almost from coast to coast. Both coasts provide breathtaking scenery, its granite cliffs beaten by the full force of the Atlantic. Southern Cornwall is a little more protected and has long, twisting creeks bringing the tide deep into the land, which were once ideal for smugglers. Inland are farms and moorland. There are many prehistoric remains on the moors and hills. Cornwall's rough and rugged landscape has inspired poets, novelists and artists for centuries. The old industries (or …

• Somerset place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-09-15. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Somerset as follows: Somerset stretches along the southern shore of the Severnmouth and the Bristol Channel from the Avon to Exmoor. In the heart of the county are the Somerset Levels, a remarkable flat land reaching in from the Bristol Channel, divided in two by the low range of the Polden Hills. The land of the Levels is at or around sea level and in former days was regularly flooded (and some have suggested that Somerset's gets its name from the reappearance of the land in the summer). The Levels are cross-crossed with "rhines", drainage ditches, and that many of the villages' names end in -ey, "-island" tells of life before the Somerset Levels were drained. One of the most dramatic features here is Glastonbury Tor, a lone hill rising steeply out of the landscape above the town of Glastonbury (reputed burial place of King Arthur and a magnet for newly invented …

• Shropshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-05-31. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Surrey as follows: Shropshire is a large county; the largest of the shires without a coastline. It remains rural except in one intense district of industrialisation and urbanization at Telford and Ironbridge. The River Severn shapes much of Shropshire. It passes through the middle of the county forming a broad, rich valley and floodplain. The Severn curls around Shrewsbury, the county town like a moat. Shrewsbury is a town built on a hill above the Severn with a mediæval castle and Tudor streets. It was King Charles I's capital for a while too. Further downstream the Seven enters the Severn Gorge where it is bridged by the famous Iron Bridge, a symbol of the Industrial Revolution which took root here. The town of Ironbridge which grew up from the works around the bridge, is no longer at the cutting edge of industrial advances; it is a heritage centre. Immediately …

Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Rutland as follows: Rutland is the smallest county in England, and indeed the smallest of them all after Clackmannanshire and Kinross-shire. Rutland is the heart of the Midlands. Rutland is almost entirely agricultural, the only towns of any size being Oakham and Uppingham, both small and charming. Elsewhere Rutland is characterized by delightful villages. Those in the east of the county are built mostly in oolitic limestone, those in the south and west more in warm limestone. Rutland is a well watered place; the Eye Brook, the Chater, and the Gwash flowing through green vales between rolling hills. The south-eastern border is the Welland. The Gwash was dammed in the 1970s, flooding a huge area for a reservoir; Rutland Water. Although its construction was the subject of considerable opposition and involved the demolition of the hamlet of Nether Hambleton, Rutland …

The hills of Cumberland form a great part of the exquisite Lake District. Derwentwater, Buttermere and Crummockwater, Ennerdale Water, Wast Water, and part of Ullswater lie in Cumberland. Above them rise mountains, including England's highest mountain, Scafell Pike (3,210 feet). Also within Cumberland are Scafell, Skiddaw, Great Gable and Pillar. This is prime walking country for hardy souls. Beyond the green Eden valley, the Penines cross the east of Cumberland, with Cross Pell, 2,930 feet, the highest. In the north is Carlisle, a cathedral city, whose massive castle and fortifications against the Scots still dominate much of the town. In the rest of Cumberland fortified churches and "peel houses" are found, built as a defence not so much against the Scots …

Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Staffordshire as follows: Staffordshire stretches from the Black Country in the south into forest in the north. South-eastern Staffordshire is covered by urban growth arising from its central part in the Industrial Revolution. This is the Black Country, rich in coal mines and strung with industrial canals. The heavy industry of the nineteenth century gathered here and in nearby Birmingham, so that all have grown together into a giant conurbation of communities, in which are the City of Wolverhampton, West Bromwich, Walsall and Wednesbury. In complete contrast, elsewhere there is fine natural scenery. Dovedale, on the boundary of Staffordshire, and Beresford Dale are renowned.

In the south of the county is Salisbury and in the north is Swindown. Between the two lies the great expanse of Salisbury Plain. Southern Wiltshire is known for pretty towns and villages. It is a wealthy agricultural land. In its middle is the City of Salisbury. Salisbury was a mediæval "new town", built around an ornate cathedral; the cathedral with the highest spire in Britain.

• Durham place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-01. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Durham as follows: County Durham was in the Middle Ages a county palatine under the rule of the Bishop of Durham; the Prince-Bishops as they were known. A great deal has changed in Durham since those days though, even is the palatinate ended only in 1836. County Durham today is in parts a heavily industrialized county. It is rich in mines; coal, iron, lead, mill-stone grit and limestone. Indeed in parts of Durham sea-coal is driven from undersea ridges onto the beaches in industrial quantities. The mines, now in deep decline, drove the county's development. The mouths of the Tees and the Tyne are heavily industrialised and urban. The northeast of the county, including Gateshead, Washington, South Shields and Sunderland, is the most urbanised. However away from the urban areas, in particular in the west of the county, Durham becomes hill country; the Durham Dales are …

It is a mountainous shire, with some of the grandest scenery of the land. The heart of Westmorland lies in the Lakeland fells. One of the most famous roads is that over the Kirkstone Pass, a bleak, sheer rock pass across the mountains. Westmorland touches the sea in the River Kent estuary as it enters Morecambe Bay. This point divides Lancashire into two. At the head of the Ken dale is Kendal, around which is a pleasant land of low hills. Westward is Windermere, which marks the boundary with the Furness district of Lancashire, the largest lake in England, though not the largest in the whole country. Ambleside, at the head of Windermere, is a delightful town hard up against the mountains. From here a wee lane runs steeply up to the Kirkstone Pass. Across the mountains is Edendale.

• Northamptonshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2014-10-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Northamptonshire as follows: Northamptonshire is an inland county. It was once known as the county of "spires and squires"; the haunt of wealthy landowners and a place with several fine mediæval church spires. It is said to be fine foxhunting country. Industry and new town developments have changed the face of Northamptonshire though. Corby was until recently one of the greatest steelworks towns, working the local iron ore. Other towns around it have grown up to service Corby industry or to hug the transport links that cross the shire. Northampton has long been famous for shoes. The industry is no longer dominant, but Northampton is the top location for the leatherworking trade. The town has grown substantially in the last decade or two since it was declared a New Town. The New town elements are the growing outskirts of the town; the centre remains that of a …

• Devon place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-06-04. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Devon as follows: Devon is large county in the southeastern corner of the land; only Cornwall lies beyond to the west. Devon has two seacoasts to north and south, with the Bristol Channel and English Channel respectively. Dorset and Somerset are to the east. Devonshire has a proud seagoing tradition. The Elizabethan navy that defeated the armada and "singed the King of Spain's beard" was largely drawn from Devon. Sir Francis Drake was a Tavistock man. Only in recent years has the Royal Navy scaled down its dominant presence in Devonport in Plymouth. The southern coast is very lovely, rugged between Thurlestone and Salcombe, from where a network of craggy tidal creeks reaches deep into the land. Cliffs front the sea. The northern coastline is remarkable for steep thickly-wooded cliffs between Lynmouth and Ilfracombe, while beyond the Taw and Torridge estuaries there is …

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2014-08-18. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Dorset as follows: Dorset is a Wessex county of chalk downs, a charming coast and the home of the stately and rural life lovingly captured in the novels of Thomas Hardy, a Dorset man, and before him by the Rev. William Barnes. The downs reach a height of over 900 feet in the west. Dorset's farmland and the look it has bequeathed to the landscape has thankfully been little touched by excessive modern development. The limestone cliffs of the Dorset coast are rich in nature and in other ways; "Purbeck marble", Portland stone, and from the cliffs of Lyme Regis innumerable dinosaur fossils. Chesil Beach, a unique pebble bank runs some eight miles to the Isle of Portland, projecting into the English Channel south from Weymouth. Weymouth and Poole Harbour are top yachting havens.

It is split by the Severn on which sits the City of Gloucester. Gloucestershire has three distinct parts. The best known part is the Cotswold Hills, which cover the east of the county, and spread also into Oxfordshire. The Cotswolds are famed for the beauty of their villages and the landscape. The Cotswolds remain a wealthy sheep-farming region. Locally quarried Cotswold stone is used ubiquitously throughout the Cotswolds, producing picture-postcard, honey coloured towns and villages.

Leicester, the county town is a historic city with Roman, Viking and Mediæval roots under a substantial modern city undergoing great social transformation. Leicestershire has a wealth of coal seams. Northern Leicestershire is greatly transformed by coal mining. Coalville, northwest of Leicester, was founded on and sustained by the mines, a centre among other mining centres. The rest of the county is famed for its scenery, including the hilly Charnwood Forest, rising above 900 feet and the Wolds in the northeast. In this unindustrial part of Leicestershire are many charming villages and rich farmland. Melton Mowbury, at the heart of fox-hunting country in the east of the shire, is the home of the eponymous pork pie. (Stilton cheese is also from …

• Hampshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Hampshire as follows: A seaborne county and a landward county, a rural and an urban county, Hampshire looks in two directions. The south coast of Hampshire, on the English Channel, looks to the sea. Southampton is Britain's greatest commercial seaport and eastward of it Portsmouth is the home of the Royal Navy. Other ports line the Hampshire coast, and indeed from the head of Southampton Water to the edge of Sussex runs a swathe of townscape, broken only by a breathing space of smaller towns by Southampton and by the river estuaries, islands and creeks with which the natural coastline is ragged. In this though each town has it characteristics and history. Across the Solent is the Isle of Wight, a self-reliant island (and once a separate Jutish kingdom) but a part of Hampshire nevertheless. Queen Victoria fell in love with the island and stayed frequently at Osborne …

• Lancashire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Lancashire as follows: Lancashire is a large and heavily populated county, in population second only to Middlesex. Lancashire runs up the English west coast from the Mersey north to Morecambe Bay with a further part north of the sands at Furness. Lancashire was at the heart of the Industrial Revolution, its cotton mills supplying the Empire and the World. Although competition and changed technology have swept many of the great mills away nevertheless Lancashire is still home to industrial might, and the great towns and cities which grew up in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries still thrive. Away from the industrial and urban areas, Lancashire contains scenery of much beauty and jarring contrasts. The Furness district in the north sits on the sea at Barrow in Furness, a shipyard and industrial town. Behind Barrow though is a land of lakeland fells, forested and …

• Warwickshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Warwickshire as follows: Warwickshire can boast of being the birthplace of the British imagination, for this is Shakespeare's own county. There is more to it though; Birmingham gained its place in the industrial revolution two hundred years after its place in the cultural revolution. Stratford-on-Avon, the place of William Shakespeare's birth and of his death, has become a place of pilgrimage. His birthplace remains almost as he would have known it; a leaning half-timbered house, one of many in the town and in the villages of the neighbourhood, including the home of his wife, a large thatched, half-timbered house in beautiful country. Outside the town once stretched the Forest of Arden, an enchanted place which many celebrated, and though little woodland remains, the names of Hampton-in-Arden and Henley-in-Arden remain. The villages in this part of Warwickshire …

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Oxfordshire as follows: Oxfordshire lies alomg the River Thames, and stretches northward into the Cotswold Hills. It is mainly known for the City of Oxford, but there is far more to the county. Oxford is the seat of the oldest university in Britain, and one of the most prestigious in the world. Oxford has a wealth of ancient colleges and university buidlings with beautiful buildings which define and shape the town. At Oxford the Cherwell meets the Thames. Down by where the rivers meet are meadows belonging, like much of the city, to the colleges. The cathedral is by the meadows too, rather overlooked. Oxford though also has another side as a manufacturing town, centered in Cowley. The Thames forms the whole of Oxfordshire's southern border, stretching for about 70 miles. The south of Oxfordshire is in the middle and upper reaches of the Thames Valley. At Kelmscot, at …

• Middlesex place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Middlesex as follows: Middlesex is the smallest English county after Rutland but the most populous in Britain. Middlesex is certainly the most urban county, being almost wholly covered by London and its outgrowths. Middlesex has been called "the Capital County" as the home of the capital city (whether you think that is London or Westminster). Unbroken townscape stretches from one side of the county to the other. This does however just link town to town without always erasing the distinctiveness of each Middlesex town and village. Most distinctive are the City of London and the City of Westminster adjoining it, the former housing the financial institutions of the kingdom and the latter its social, cultural and political institutions, and of course the top shops. The City of London is unique in being governed mainly by the business community which are, after all, its …

• Lincolnshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Lincolnshire as follows: Lincolnshire is a large county; in England the biggest after Yorkshire. It is divided into the three parts; Holland (the southwest), Kesteven (the southeast) and Lindsey (the north). The county lies along the North Sea coast and extends from the Humber estuary in the north to Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire in the south. The North Sea coast runs into the sea with long tidal mudflats and sandy beaches for its whole length, so that the tide may run out a mile from where the map shows. The southern end of the county's coast is part of the Wash. Lincolnshire is mainly flat with a great deal of drained fenland particularly in the south of the county. There is one remarkable range of hills; the Lincoln Edge, a narrow ridge which runs in a straight line almost due north for some forty miles, through Lincoln and on, though "the Heights" as it is …

• Essex place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-26. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Essex as follows: Essex is full of contrast. The southwest of the county (including Romford, Dagenham, Woodford, Leyton, West Ham) lies within the London conurbation, and the heavy industry which serves it, particularly on the lower Thames reaches. Along the Thames estuary new towns and modern housing developemtns have spread and are still spreading irresistably to produce almost a continuous line of occupation from London to Southend, linked with motorways and arterial roads. However beyond this urban zone Essex retains scenic countryside and charming villages. Epping Forest, though close to the London spread, has remained largely unspoiled. The Essex coast, ragged, indented by river estuaries (the Colne, the Blackwater, the Crouch) and full of tidal marshes, with low islands off the coast, is ever changing, losing land to the North Sea or gaining it. Indeed Essex is …

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-16. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Derbyshire as follows: Derbyshire has four distinct areas but all together creating the whole. Much of southern Derbyshire lies in the green Trent Valley. Derby itself, a cathedral city, is a major midland industrial town, currently trying to diversify. The Derwent runs through the eastern edge of Derby, southward towards the Trent. From the northern edge of Derby the hills begin to rise at once and the rolling hills of the Derbyshire Dales begin. This area is an in between land, for beyond the farms of the hills and dales, the land becomes rougher and the hills become the high, dramatic moors of Peak District, an area of glorious scenery. The mountains in the High Peak, take up the whole northwest of the county. The Pennine Way begins at Edale in the Peak District, drawing hikers in their hundreds each week.

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Buckinghamshire as follows: A distinctively shaped inland county. The delightful Chiltern Hills, sweeping through the south of the county, give the shire much of its character; with beech woods in the west, rising to higher, more windswept landscape around Ivinghoe Beacon, and all full of pretty villages of flint and thatch. It provides fine walking country. The more gentle, pastoral Vale of Aylesbury lies north of the Chilterns. Buckinghamshire's short southern border is the River Thames, which above Slough is considered the finest stretch of that river. In the north of the county, along the Great Ouse, Milton Keynes spreads across the landscape; an ambitious, planned New Town of the 1970's, in sharp contrast to Buckingham to the west, an ancient and very picturesque town.

The Gogmagog Hills are the highest features in the county (though the highest point lies near the south-east border at Camps Castle) but beneath them the Cambridgeshire landscape is generally low-lying, much of it drained fens (and still called fenland) and in some areas is at sea level or below. The northern part of Cambridgeshire is known as "The Isle of Ely", which is remarkable for its flatness and its fertile soil. The main town is the university city of Cambridge. The University of Cambridge is the oldest in Britain after Oxford, and with Oxford is the foremost.

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Hertfordshire as follows: Hertfordshire, particularly southern Hertfordshire, is much affected by its closeness to the Metroplitan conurbation, sprouting ubiquitous red brick housing developments and hostile trunk roads. Despite that though much of the county has remained rural and unspoilt. The west of Hertfordshire rises into the edge of the Chilterns, with its typical small villages and beechwoods. From the Colne Valley's birch and blackthorn woodlands to the mixed farmlands of the bulk of the county are networks of footpaths for all to enjoy. The county's most charming town is the city of St Albans. It stands on a hill overseen by St Albans Abbey, a very large and distinctive church, and a cathedral since 1877. St Albans has the important Roman remains of the city of Verulamium. Hertford, the county town, combines the old market town with a busy modern outer town. …

• Pindar Place (Grays Inn Road)
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-01-16. Revised by … 'Pindar Place' was the 19th century name for the west side of Grays Inn Road between Cromer and Harrison streets and also probably for the short, narrow cul-de-sac that then existed between these two side streets (see detail of Edward Stanford's 1862-71 Library Map of London elsewhere on this page). There were flats and several shops in this area (see records below). Most likely Pindar Place was named after the Pinder of Wakefield on Grays Inn Road. For a while at least, the cul-de-sac, which is shown on all the 25" and 6" O.S. maps listed below, was known as Black Horse Yard (see the 25" O.S. map from 1877).

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-01-10. Revised by … According to local tradition, localities in England were connected with one or more others through Robin Hood and/or Little John having shot an arrow from one to another: Ireland Because they must not interfere with IRHB's statistics on Robin Hood-related place-names and localities in England, British localities outside England are kept apart. Dublin boasts two localities connected by a feat of flight shooting performed by Little John which was so impressive that it immediately alerted the authorities to his presence there – for who but Little John could shoot so far? – whereupon he made his precipitate escape to Scotland. ⁃ Father Mathew Bridge (Dublin) ⁃ Little John's Shot (Dublin).

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-12-20.

It is largely low-lying, though the Chiltern Hills also reach into the southern part of the county. The chief river is the Great Ouse, which snakes through the county, producing very fertile country, and on whose banks lies the county town, Bedford. In area, most of the county is agricultural. However there are several large towns and industrial development around many towns. The main town is Luton, an industrial town with a major airport. Bedford itself, is smaller, but a thriving town nevertheless. While no "New Towns" were planted in Bedfordshire, Bedford, Luton and several towns have been the subject of similar planned expansion, influenced by the A1, which runs through the centre of the county, and the M1 in its south. Nevertheless, away from the main towns Bedfordshire …

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Buckinghamshire as follows: A distinctively shaped inland county. The delightful Chiltern Hills, sweeping through the south of the county, give the shire much of its character; with beech woods in the west, rising to higher, more windswept landscape around Ivinghoe Beacon, and all full of pretty villages of flint and thatch. It provides fine walking country. The more gentle, pastoral Vale of Aylesbury lies north of the Chilterns. Buckinghamshire's short southern border is the River Thames, which above Slough is considered the finest stretch of that river. In the north of the county, along the Great Ouse, Milton Keynes spreads across the landscape; an ambitious, planned New Town of the 1970's, in sharp contrast to Buckingham to the west, an ancient and very picturesque town.

In western Berkshire rise the Berkshire Downs, rising to about 1,000 feet. From them is much beautiful and wooded river scenery down to Reading. The prehistoric Ridgeway runs along the Berkshire Downs, above the pleasant Vale of White Horse. There the famous White Horse of Uffington is the major landmark.

• Rutland place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-05-23. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Rutland as follows: Rutland is the smallest county in England, and indeed the smallest of them all after Clackmannanshire and Kinross-shire. Rutland is the heart of the Midlands. Rutland is almost entirely agricultural, the only towns of any size being Oakham and Uppingham, both small and charming. Elsewhere Rutland is characterized by delightful villages. Those in the east of the county are built mostly in oolitic limestone, those in the south and west more in warm limestone. Rutland is a well watered place; the Eye Brook, the Chater, and the Gwash flowing through green vales between rolling hills. The south-eastern border is the Welland. The Gwash was dammed in the 1970s, flooding a huge area for a reservoir; Rutland Water. Although its construction was the subject of considerable opposition and involved the demolition of the hamlet of Nether Hambleton, Rutland …

Despite that though much of the county has remained rural and unspoilt. The west of Hertfordshire rises into the edge of the Chilterns, with its typical small villages and beechwoods. From the Colne Valley's birch and blackthorn woodlands to the mixed farmlands of the bulk of the county are networks of footpaths for all to enjoy. The county's most charming town is the city of St Albans. It stands on a hill overseen by St Albans Abbey, a very large and distinctive church, and a cathedral since 1877. St Albans has the important Roman remains of the city of Verulamium. Hertford, the county town, combines the old market town with a busy modern outer town. …

Industry and new town developments have changed the face of Northamptonshire though. Corby was until recently one of the greatest steelworks towns, working the local iron ore. Other towns around it have grown up to service Corby industry or to hug the transport links that cross the shire. Northampton has long been famous for shoes. The industry is no longer dominant, but Northampton is the top location for the leatherworking trade. The town has grown substantially in the last decade or two since it was declared a New Town.

Along the Thames estuary new towns and modern housing developemtns have spread and are still spreading irresistably to produce almost a continuous line of occupation from London to Southend, linked with motorways and arterial roads. However beyond this urban zone Essex retains scenic countryside and charming villages. Epping Forest, though close to the London spread, has remained largely unspoiled. The Essex coast, ragged, indented by river estuaries (the Colne, the Blackwater, the Crouch) and full of tidal marshes, with low islands off the coast, is ever changing, losing land to the North Sea or gaining it.

This is prime walking country for hardy souls. Beyond the green Eden valley, the Penines cross the east of Cumberland, with Cross Pell, 2,930 feet, the highest. In the north is Carlisle, a cathedral city, whose massive castle and fortifications against the Scots still dominate much of the town. In the rest of Cumberland fortified churches and "peel houses" are found, built as a defence not so much against the Scots …

• Warwickshire place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-06-19. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Warwickshire as follows: Warwickshire can boast of being the birthplace of the British imagination, for this is Shakespeare's own county. There is more to it though; Birmingham gained its place in the industrial revolution two hundred years after its place in the cultural revolution. Stratford-on-Avon, the place of William Shakespeare's birth and of his death, has become a place of pilgrimage. His birthplace remains almost as he would have known it; a leaning half-timbered house, one of many in the town and in the villages of the neighbourhood, including the home of his wife, a large thatched, half-timbered house in beautiful country. Outside the town once stretched the Forest of Arden, an enchanted place which many celebrated, and though little woodland remains, the names of Hampton-in-Arden and Henley-in-Arden remain. The villages in this part of Warwickshire …

• Durham place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-01. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Durham as follows: County Durham was in the Middle Ages a county palatine under the rule of the Bishop of Durham; the Prince-Bishops as they were known. A great deal has changed in Durham since those days though, even is the palatinate ended only in 1836. County Durham today is in parts a heavily industrialized county. It is rich in mines; coal, iron, lead, mill-stone grit and limestone. Indeed in parts of Durham sea-coal is driven from undersea ridges onto the beaches in industrial quantities. The mines, now in deep decline, drove the county's development. The mouths of the Tees and the Tyne are heavily industrialised and urban. The northeast of the county, including Gateshead, Washington, South Shields and Sunderland, is the most urbanised. However away from the urban areas, in particular in the west of the county, Durham becomes hill country; the Durham Dales are …

  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-06-04.

Devon has two seacoasts to north and south, with the Bristol Channel and English Channel respectively. Dorset and Somerset are to the east. Devonshire has a proud seagoing tradition. The Elizabethan navy that defeated the armada and "singed the King of Spain's beard" was largely drawn from Devon. Sir Francis Drake was a Tavistock man. Only in recent years has the Royal Navy scaled down its dominant presence in Devonport in Plymouth. The southern coast is very lovely, rugged between Thurlestone and Salcombe, from where a network of craggy tidal creeks reaches deep into the land. Cliffs front the sea. The northern coastline is remarkable for steep thickly-wooded cliffs between Lynmouth and Ilfracombe, while beyond the Taw and Torridge estuaries there is …

• Robinhood Butts (Wiltshire)
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-01-02. Revised by … The authors of the English Place-Name Society volume on Wiltshire, published 1939, note "Robinhood butts" as a field or minor name occurring already in 1649: butte, ME (n) is fairly common in the plural form as in Buttes (1220), Shorte and Longe buttes (1289), Brode-, Letelbuttes (1393). It usually has reference to strips of land abutting on a boundary, often at right angles to the other ridges in the field, but in such a name as Robinhood butts (1649), it clearly has reference to the village archery butts. Gover, John Eric Bruce 1939a, p. 426. Italic and bold type as used there. Unfortunately there is no hint where "Robinhood butts" were located, and no source is cited. Moreover, I doubt very much whether this place-name "clearly has reference to the village archery butts".

The south coast of Hampshire, on the English Channel, looks to the sea. Southampton is Britain's greatest commercial seaport and eastward of it Portsmouth is the home of the Royal Navy. Other ports line the Hampshire coast, and indeed from the head of Southampton Water to the edge of Sussex runs a swathe of townscape, broken only by a breathing space of smaller towns by Southampton and by the river estuaries, islands and creeks with which the natural coastline is ragged.

Middlesex is certainly the most urban county, being almost wholly covered by London and its outgrowths. Middlesex has been called "the Capital County" as the home of the capital city (whether you think that is London or Westminster). Unbroken townscape stretches from one side of the county to the other. This does however just link town to town without always erasing the distinctiveness of each Middlesex town and village. Most distinctive are the City of London and the City of Westminster adjoining it, the former housing the financial institutions of the kingdom and the latter its social, cultural and political institutions, and of course the top shops. The City of London is unique in being governed mainly by the business community which are, after all, its …

In the heart of the county are the Somerset Levels, a remarkable flat land reaching in from the Bristol Channel, divided in two by the low range of the Polden Hills. The land of the Levels is at or around sea level and in former days was regularly flooded (and some have suggested that Somerset's gets its name from the reappearance of the land in the summer). The Levels are cross-crossed with "rhines", drainage ditches, and that many of the villages' names end in -ey, "-island" tells of life before the Somerset Levels were drained.

It is a mountainous shire, with some of the grandest scenery of the land. The heart of Westmorland lies in the Lakeland fells. One of the most famous roads is that over the Kirkstone Pass, a bleak, sheer rock pass across the mountains. Westmorland touches the sea in the River Kent estuary as it enters Morecambe Bay. This point divides Lancashire into two. At the head of the Ken dale is Kendal, around which is a pleasant land of low hills. Westward is Windermere, which marks the boundary with the Furness district of Lancashire, the largest lake in England, though not the largest in the whole country. Ambleside, at the head of Windermere, is a delightful town hard up against the mountains. From here a wee lane runs steeply up to the Kirkstone Pass. Across the mountains is Edendale.

Cornwall is triangular in shape, surrounded to the north and south by the sea and on the east by the River Tamar, which forms the border with Devon almost from coast to coast. Both coasts provide breathtaking scenery, its granite cliffs beaten by the full force of the Atlantic. Southern Cornwall is a little more protected and has long, twisting creeks bringing the tide deep into the land, which were once ideal for smugglers. Inland are farms and moorland.

Dobson & Taylor, Dobson, Richard Barrie 1976a, p. 311. who provide the coordinates for this locality, note that the well is "[p]ossibly associated with Robin Hood's Bower and Moss ". This is due to a misunderstanding of their source, A. H.

Smith, op. cit. in discussing the Moss and Bower makes a few brief remarks concerning Robin Hood place-names in general.

According to the foremost authority on Yorkshire place-names, the etymology of "Barnsdale" is "Beorn's valley" (dale), Beorn being an Old English personal name, which occurs also in other place-names, for instance Barnsley (c. 18 km WSW of Barnsdale).

  Walsham le Willows. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2014-08-02. Revised by … The road name Robhodway occurs in two entries in the Walsham le Willows (Suffolk) court rolls for 1344 (see Evidence below). "Robhood" is recorded as a family name in Walsham le Willows from 1283 to 1628. See the page on the Robhoods of Walsham le Willows. By 1577 and probably already by the mid-15th century, "Robwood" had become the standard form of the name. As is the case with other surnames of the "Robinhood" type, the etymology is unknown, and it is not entirely certain that this surname has anything to do with Robin Hood. Although it seems more likely Robhodway was named after the local Robhood family than vice versa, this also cannot be regarded as certain. It is, however, difficult to imagine what circumstance or natural or manmade feature could have given the road its name if not the simple fact that it was the road where the Robhood family lived. Whether Robhodway is in any way a Robin …

• Sussex place-names
  By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2016-09-08. Revised by … County description The Historic Counties Trust describes Sussex as follows: Sussex on the south coast is the county of the South Downs and the sea. Its coastline is more than 80 miles long, with sandy beaches almost unbroken along its whole length from Chichester Harbour to Camber Sands. The South Downs stretch almost the length of Sussex, from the Hampshire border to Beachy Head. Sussex was once a Kingdom, until overwhelmed and absorbed in the ninth century. The coastal strip of Sussex squeezed between the South Downs and the English Channel are what makes "Sussex by the Sea" so famous. Here are a long string of beach resorts including Bognor, Worthing, Hove and of course Brighton, the most famous of them all. Past Beachy Head lie Eastbourne, Bexhill-on-Sea and Hastings. Brighton is a most remarkable town. Its beachfront is the quintessential seaside resort, with two pleasure piers (albeit that one went on fire a few years …

• 1438 - Vessel Robyne Hude at Aberdeen
  Aberdeen. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-11-24. Revised by … Record Source notes The printed source mentions this in a note, referring to the Aberdeen MS Council Register, vol. IV, pp. 133, 134. Mill, Anna Jean 1927a, p. 23 n. 1. IRHB comments So far the tally of vessels with Robin Hood-related names suggests that Little John was much more popular among the seafaring segment than the master outlaw. For boats and some ships the element 'Little' may of course had had a special and obvious appropriateness. See Ship names. Lists ⁃ Not included in Sussex, Lucy 1994a.

• Robinhood (Sutton)
  The site of Robinhood. By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2017-01-18. Revised by … A cluster of three buildings, probably a farmstead, immediately east of London Road (A523), in Sutton, south of central Macclesfield, is labelled 'Robinhood' on O.S. maps from 1842 on. Dodgson, John McNeal 1970a, vol. I, p. 123. And see Maps section on this page. As far as I can see, Dodgson, in the first English Place-name Society volume on Cheshire lists this locality under both Macclesfield and Sutton. Under the latter he notes that "Moss End or Robin Hood" is thus labelled on Bryant's 1831 map of Cheshire. Unfortunately the only version of this map available online is in such low resolution that I have not been able to locate 'Moss End or Robin Hood" on it (see Maps section below), Dodgson, op. cit., vol. I, pp. 123, 155. but it seems likely that the element 'moss' refers to Danes Moss, near which the Robinhood listed under Macclesfield is located, so we are probably here concerned with duplicate …

  Robinhood Lane, Winnersh / HTN collection.]] By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2018-05-28. Revised by … Robinhood Lane in Winnersh runs north-east from Reading Road to become Davis Street north of the A329 (M) overpass.
