Subject: RE: Folklore: 'frith' a Middle English ramble
Thanks, Acorn, that's interesting. There are at least 3 friths there, Braunstone Frith, Glenfield Frith and Leister Frith. In the 19th C., people still distinguished between friths and forests.

There are of course 4 friths if we count Francis Frith, mapseller.
