The Journal welcomes contributions of articles and notes on subjects of relevance to English place-names. The English Place-Name Society (EPNS) was established in 1923 to conduct a county-by-county survey of the place-names of England. To date, the Survey has produced 90 volumes. Almost all English counties have been surveyed, at least in part, and work to complete the Survey is ongoing. The Survey is used by researchers, academics, and those interested in the origins, meaning, and significance of English place-names. The research work and the publication of the Survey are financed by the annual subscriptions of members of the Society, with the help of grants from the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the British Academy. Since the progress and success of the Survey depend largely upon the strength of the membership, the Society always welcomes new members, both personal and institutional. In return for the annual subscription, members receive free of charge the current issue of the Journal as well as the volume of the Survey allocated to that year’s subscription. They are entitled to order, in addition, any available volume of the Survey at a concessionary price. Associate Members pay a reduced subscription, for which they receive the Journal. Annual subscription prices (correct as of April 2017): Within the UK Outside the UK £40 (full) £45 (full)* £15 (associate) £18 (associate* *increased prices reflect increased postage cost.
  • Jenks' Guide to the Staffordshire

    Jenks' Guide to the Staffordshire

    JENKS’ GUIDE TO THE STAFFORDSHIRE & WORCESTERSHIRE CANAL (1907) with particular reference to the Stafford Branch Canal / River Sow Navigation Researched and written by David Jones One of the first canal tourist guide books was probably The Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal written by Alfred E.Jenks and published by John Steen & Co Ltd at the Old Grammar School Printing Works (St John’s Street, Wolverhampton) in 1907. Alfred Jenks lived at Neville Lodge, Newbridge Crescent, Wolverhampton. He was a “Breeder of High-class Dalmations or Coach Dogs” and sold “Well Spotted Dogs at Two Guineas”. The 64 page Guide describes the waterway and various features along the route from Great Haywood to Stourport, such as bridges and locks, and includes maps, tables of distances and numerous photographs. The Guide is arranged in two sections: Tettenhall (Newbridge) to Great Haywood, and Tettenhall to Stourport. Useful information was offered to the traveller, such as the location of convenient fields for camping and the various inns “where refreshments and accommodation can be obtained the year round” as at the Anchor Inn (Coven). Travellers are told that “the name-plates affixed to the bridges will be found a great help in locating one’s whereabouts, and that “strangers to the route and the local traffic will find it safer not to travel by night.” We are reminded that “Private boats, kept permanently on the Canal, take out an annual license; but boats touring through take out a ‘pass’ at the first toll house.” The Guide was very informative, and gave a very positive up-beat view of boating, the pleasant rural scenery, picturesque buildings, old churches, and numerous craft were mentioned – rowing boats, steam launches, electric launches, motor boats and pleasure craft of all sorts – but there was no mention of working boats, no mention of the unmentionable raison d’être of the canal – this was Edwardian England through rose-coloured spectacles in those carefree days before the First World War.
