At the forefront of place-name studies, Margaret Gelling makes major advances in our understanding of the derivation of English place-names and of their roots in history and landscape.

The definitive study of British place-names by which Margeret Gelling rediscovers a past missing from the history books: invasions, the movements of whole peoples, the changing uses of land: ever place tells its own story.

Dr Margaret Gelling has been engaged in place-name research since 1946 when she was appointed research assistant to the English Place-Name Society. She is now president of the English Place-Name Society.
