The Place-Names of Worcestershire
£20.00
by J. E. B. Gover, A. Mawer, and F. M. Stenton, in collaboration with F. T. S. Houghton.
The volume surveys the names of all places in the county before 1974 (when the county, with modified boundaries, was combined with Herefordshire) and also includes a few parishes which had been transferred to Herefordshire in 1897. A large coloured map in an end-pocket shows clearly the numerous Worcestershire enclaves within neighbouring counties at the time of publication.
