Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place-Names of Northumberland and Durham The study of English place-names is steadily advancing- in its methods and extent and in the present volume an attempt is made to deal with two more counties. Work on them has taken much the greater part of eight years, sadly interrupted by the war and other circumstances. These interruptions have had their bad influence in making it more difficult than usual to secure that uniformity of handling and presentation which is desirable in a theme of this kind. On the other hand, they have enabled the author to take advantage of the ever-growing literature - English and Scandinavian - that deals with these matters. As one reads it, the unhappy conviction is more and more brought home to one that no single county can be dealt with satisfactorily apart from a survey of the field of English place-nomenclature as a whole. In the disorganised condition of English place-name study it is impossible to look for those happy results that have already been attained in Norway, and are fast becoming possible in Sweden and Denmark, as the result of organised research, aided by the State. Those who recognise the importance of these studies must labour to secure similar co-operation in England, and, in the meantime, endeavour to keep interest alive by such single-handed efforts as they can individually make.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last half century has seen many studies of the origin of the English village. As a cross-disciplinary enquiry this book integrates materials from geography, history, economic history, archaeology, place-name studies, anthropology and even church architecture. These provide varied foundations, but the underlying subject matter always engages with landscape studies. Beginning with a rigorous examination of evidence hidden within the surviving village and hamlet plans seen on eighteenth and nineteenth century maps, the first half of the book shows how these can be classified, mapped, analysed and then interpreted as important parts of former medieval landscapes. Many specific case-studies are built into the argument, all being drawn from the author's lifetime work on northern England, and accessible language is employed. From this base, the argument develops, with the objective of integrating landscape studies with the descriptive and analytical practices of history, and drawing these together by using the cartographic methods of historical geography. This foundation leads gently into deeper waters; to the landed estates in which all settlements developed and the farming and social systems of which they were a part; to the land holding arrangements that were integrated into the physical plans, providing methods of sharing out the agricultural resources of arable, meadow, woodland and common grazings; and finally to the social divisions present within a changing society. A wholly new theme is found in the argument that certain types of land tenure were associated with a class of officer, land agent or dreng , who in northern England was often linked with the provision of tenants for new villages. It is clear from the evidence amassed that the deliberate founding of new villages and the establishment of new plans on older sites was taking place in the centuries between about AD 900 and 1250. Finally, the study moves beyond the North of England to review the European roots of planned villages and hamlets, and concludes with a challenging hypothesis about their origin in the whole of England. This provides pointers towards future enquiry.

Download or read book The Place-Names of Durham (Classic Reprint) written by Charles E. Jackson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place-Names of Durham The investigation of the place-names of Durham is made greatly more difficult by the fact that there was no Domesday Survey of the county, and therefore that valuable source of the early forms of A.S. names is not available. Further, as the status of the county was a kind of imperium in imperio - there is a document extant wherein the king of the land begs permission of the bishop of the diocese to raise recruits therein! - and one in which documents were not carefully kept, there is not so full a supply of information from this source as is the case in some other counties. I went through one standard work of several hundreds of A. S. charters and found, I think, only one relating to Durham. The place-names of the county are nearly all of native origin. Of some the secret is hidden with the greatest of undesigned diligence, but in most cases they yield what is required when the principles of the development of the dialect are applied. The Psalmist would find no reason to abate his complaint that the people "call the lands after their own names."
