The name Teversham nr Cambridge is also of potential interest, as may mean 'the estate/homestead of the sorcerer'... http://www.caitlingreen.org/2014/10/anglo-saxon-socerer.html …
Teversal: a 'Sorcerer's Stronghold' in Anglo-Saxon Notts & a source for Tolkien's Dol Guldur? http://www.caitlingreen.org/2014/11/sorcerers-stronghold-tolkien.html …pic.twitter.com/KiAjvf8Y3P
Another poss Tolkien source=Welsh poem Cad Goddeu, features tree-army fighting demonic forces https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=DeaGo-Qkf2kC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA184&hl=en#v=onepage&q&f=false …pic.twitter.com/WOyosy8gpx
Worth noting that Tolkien did indeed own a copy Cad Goddeu, in The Book of Taliesin, ed. J. Gwenogvryn Evans, which he acquired in 1922...
@caitlinrgreen Good Lord! My friend lives in Willingham Cambs & he is every inch a Pagan Priest!
@Tweets2CV Hah! Well, there you go! ;)
@caitlinrgreen I wonder if Wivelrod in Hampshire could thus be explained, as the 'clearing of the pagan priest'?
@grailseeker Sadly, most such topographic names are thought to involve OE wifel, 'weevil or beetle', although are a couple of possibles :)
@caitlinrgreen I wish we had same rigour of scholarship applied in case of Indian placenames @Hiddenheritage @DelhiHeritage @heritage_sites
@JAJafri It's fascinating how much can be got from a name! Is there an 'Indian Place-Name Society' or similar at all?
@caitlinrgreen I don't know whether there is one, there ought be one though!
@caitlinrgreen @Wyrdtimes Lincolnshire is a magical county.
@Stephen_Gash can't say it's a part I know well. Not that far away either really - must make an effort @caitlinrgreen
@Wyrdtimes @caitlinrgreen I originate from Lincolnshire. It's being trashed by the British like everywhere else in England.
@caitlinrgreen @Wyrdtimes They'll be English pagan priests & Kultverbände then. Ingham. Hamlet of the English god Ing.
@caitlinrgreen that's good."The making of the English landscape" (E Hoskings early '80s) is Geographical but started this not all were Hams!
