1
The DOE intriguingly cites the word 'gegan' meaning 'to cry out' which might at least be worth investigating here Back to text
2
A word whose precise meaning is unclear, but is associated with wet areas or clumps of marsh grass Back to text
3
This scribe's 'y's regularly have a horizontal stroke, but it is theoretically possibly that here the stroke reflects a suspension, and is in fact for 'hymlamstede', a garbled form for Hemel Hempstead?? Back to text
4
Probably, but not necessarily, 'hawthorn' Back to text
5
An earlier name for the river Chess Back to text
