Old Roads in Central Hants by C
324 OLD ROADS IN CENTRAL HANTS BY C. F. C. HAWKES. Although many of the roads to be found in this country are of very great age, yet none of them are older than the earliest settlements. Villages and camps were not established, along the line of already existing roads, but roads grew up as links between settlements. Before the Saxon invasion all the villages were oh the uplands, and hence the roads followed the lines of the ridges from one to another. This was the best way for several reasons:—It was the driest, and generally avoided streams, and it lay over open ground; moreover, the safest route for travel . is always that with the widest view. But the principal reason was that the uplands were the centres of population. The oldest prehistoric roads are the long trade routes stretch- ing right across the country, which form the skeleton of the whole system: they keep, wherever possible, to the high ridge tops or just on the south brow, and where a ridge has to be crossed it is usually at a saddle with an easy gradient: for the crossing of a river valley, they generally descend by some spur with a gentle slope, and always choose a place as high up the river as possible, where the difficult wet valley is narrow. But later there grew up parallel roads beside them, which kept to the lower slopes of the ridges, and were used in dry summer weather, when travellers were not forced to get right to the crest of a ridge to find a passable road. -

UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES The significance of the place-name element *funta in the early middle ages. JILLIAN PATRICIA HAWKINS Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2011 UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER ABSTRACT FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The significance of the place-name element *funta in the early middle ages. Jillian Patricia Hawkins The Old English place-name element *funta derives from Late Latin fontāna, “spring”, and is found today in 21 place-names in England. It is one of a small group of such Latin-derived elements, which testify to a strand of linguistic continuity between Roman Britain and early Anglo- Saxon England. *funta has never previously been the subject of this type of detailed study. The continued use of the element indicates that it had a special significance in the interaction, during the fifth and sixth centuries, between speakers of British Latin and speakers of Old English, and this study sets out to assess this significance by examining the composition of each name and the area around each *funta site. Any combined element is always Old English. The distribution of the element is in the central part of the south- east lowland region of England. It does not occur in East Anglia, East Kent, west of Warwickshire or mid-Wiltshire or north of Peterborough. Seven of the places whose names contain the element occur singly, the remaining fourteen appearing to lie in groups. The areas where *funta names occur may also have other pre-English names close by. -
