What's In A Place Name?
In this episode of Creative Connections, we explore the origins of some familiar English place names using examples from Sussex, including Angmering, Ferring, Petworth and Littlehampton. We look at what old place-name elements can tell us about the landscape, settlements and people who lived there — and why the same clues appear in names all across England.
