Mo the caller BS: Fun with maps (50) RE: BS: Fun with maps 13 Oct 20


Mr Red said (back in June)So how many names for wooded valleys are there

    bosk
    brushwood
    coppice
    thicket
    boscage
    clump
    underbrush
    brake
    brushwood
    bush
    chaparral
    coppice
    covert
    grove
    wood
    spinny
"
I'm not convinced that all of those words imply valleys. Coppice is a way of managing woodland. I thought a covert was cover for game. And wood, spinney and grove just suggest trees to me.
