Cp. L1165.2 and S353 (L353.0) for the first three boundary points here Back to text
2
The name survives in Hersham (Farm) Back to text
3
I.e. Geoffrey de la Croix's heath; this boundary contains much post-Conquest material Back to text
4
The name survives in Portnall (Park and Wood) Back to text
5
Wine is a well-attested personal name - and indeed there is a 'wines brycge' in Worcestershire (S1227) - but the lack of the possessive ending '-es' here is a problem; we may instead be dealing with an earlier stream name Back to text
6
This is likely to be from Old French 'parc' rather than Old English 'pearroc', but this will depend upon how much of this text is based on earlier material and how much is entirely of Middle English origin Back to text
7
There was a (now lost) Harpsford in Godley Hundred Back to text
8
The name survives in Leatherlake (House) Back to text
9
The name survives as Glanty Back to text
10
The name survives in Nipnose in Thorpe; it may or may not contain an otherwise unattested personal name Back to text
11
This and the following points occur in reverse order in S353 (L353.0) and in L1165.2; this point occurs as 'weales huþe' in L353.0 and 'uueales huþe' in L1165.2 (Briton's or the personal name Wealh's). It looks as if the name has been reinterpreted here (L1165.3) as 'hweoles' (wheel's) Back to text
12
Cp. 'ƿweale gate' in L353.0 and 'ƿweala gate' in L1165.2 Back to text
13
The name appears to have survived as the (now lost) Deepen Brook Back to text
14
The name survived as the (now lost) Marsh Brook Back to text
