What on earth do Blaenegel, Gwauncaegurwen and Mawdlam mean? Is
Brynsadler named from someone who made saddles or someone called
Sadler? Are there really `high lights' in Highlight, worms at Worms
Head and butter at Brynmenyn? Scarcely a week goes by without
hearing arguments about how we should spell or say a particular
name but finding answers to your questions isn't always easy and
what you find in dictionaries, local histories and websites may
leave you with lingering doubts. Based on many years of detailed
research, Place-Names of Glamorgan investigates the historical
evidence and meanings of more than 1,100 place-names in the
historic county of Glamorgan, stretching from Rhossili to Rumney
and Rhoose to Rhigos. The illustrated volume contains a concise
introduction to the subject, a bibliography, a glossary of common
place-name elements, and a close examination of individual
place-names and their historic forms.
