It began in 1923 and, like the VCH, is producing a series of volumes for each English county. These set out, on a parish-by-parish basis and in chronological order, the various early forms of the names of each city, town, village and hamlet, interpreting and explaining their linguistic origin and meaning, before listing the many minor names that have been documented (of buildings, fields, furlongs, closes, streets, etc.) within each settlement. These volumes, and the research they contain, form an important part of our own parish history research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The 8-volume survey of Leicestershire\u2019s place-names, by Barrie Cox and published by the English Place-Name Society, is now complete.
