Stede and Tune in Bretene
One problem with place-names is that they usually appear in
the dative. This is not consistent; some later texts do not change the name to
the dative. Sometimes only the dative form may have been used. I have let
myself in each case reconstruct the nominative. Some then, those which end in
-um are plurals which I have put as -as. (One name at least
does show this as a correct approach "wocingum" (dative) and "wocingas"
(nominative) both appear in the Chronicle.) If you take the name down for
writing you will be putting it back in the dative for the most part.
Nevertheless, I have stayed with the convention of writing the list all in the
nominative unless indicated otherwise. That is not to say that I have always go
it right.
The other problem is of course that most places are not
found in any authentic source. Where it is found in Middle English (or Middle
Scots) or in the Domesday Book I might try a reconstruction, in italics in the
third column.
I have also, for ease, added initial capitals.
This is very much work in progress.

Notes on each table below
In the tables below, the columns are as below. Those names marked with an
asterisk* are derived or invented, using established
principles, for the convenience of those who compose new works in Old English.
They will not be found in any Englisc source (and some such towns were
founded or known to the Engle-cynn only after our period). Some towns known
before the Norman time have since then gained a suffix to denote former manorial
ownership (as Melton Mowbray), and I have marked the inauthentic suffix
the same way.
