Thread Name: Folklore: Names of Farms
Subject: RE: Folklore: Names of Farms
In many parts of Britain, naming is much finer-grained than that - each field has a name. My favourite is one mentioned on a board in Youlgrave Church in Derbyshire, listing lands given to the church in the 18th century - "Barearse Pingle".
