Not sure why; I have sea water in my veins, I think. There have been so many poems, stories, films I am so pleased to be sharing my thoughts with and hymns written about the sea.

On Sundays we will open from 8.30 am to 1pm and on Wednesdays we will open from 1 pm and close at 6 pm. The 72 hours gap between each session is the only alternative to a regime of cleaning to remove any risk of contamination from COVID-19, which no one knows how to do in an ancient building filled with carved wood and stone surfaces. People will want to sit or kneel and may need to touch the backs of benches briefly, so we are Our welcome notice asks everyone to sanitise their recommending that, generally, everyone avoids hands on the way in to protect the building from touching any surface with their hands.

HOLY TRINITY CHURCH WEST LULWORTH Tony Bishop, master organ builder, checking over the organ in Holy Trinity Church. It was built by R Cope of Asylum Road, Peckham well over 100 years ago and originally would have needed a strong arm to work the bellows during a service. Tony is more than 80 years old and learned his craft from his father and his grandfather, so there is not much he does not know about church organs. Now it is in tip top condition, and once Covid regulations allow us, we look forward to hearing this lovely machine working again. 4 Parish News August 2020 FROM THE REGISTRARS Our daughter Beccy, Barbara and I would like to thank all our friends and neighbours for your extraordinary kindness following the untimely death of our son-in-law in a car accident in Wool on Sunday, 5th July. Beccy is still in pain from her injuries, but they are not serious, and we are relieved that their baby daughter Freya was not physically injured. Their emotional scars will take longer to heal. Although Warren and Beccy lived in London, they were married in St Christopher’s Church on 9th August 2017. They loved coming back to Dorset and we had a lovely reunion at the end of ‘lockdown’, during which they were shielding Freya, who had been born three months premature. On their way home they were struck by an oncoming car that crossed over to their side of the road. Your cards, flowers, gifts and generous offers of support have been a great comfort and we are so pleased to live in such a loving and caring community. We’re sorry that we have not been able to thank you all individually. Thank you David and Barbara Brann Holy Trinity Church West Lulworth Funeral Anthony Kenneth Bird on the 8th July 2020 (died 20th June 2020) 5 Parish News August 2020 WINFRITH VILLAGE STORES New Service for Holiday Homes With the recent government announcement that holiday rentals can now reopen from July, we would like to make all of our local holiday-home owners aware of a new service that we will be offering at Winfrith Village Stores.

  • Examine the Value of Place-Names As Evidence for the History, Landscape And, Especially, Languages of South East Dorset
    Examine the Value of Place-Names as Evidence for the History, Landscape and, Especially, Languages of South East Dorset. Gemma Ellis Overview This paper analyses 40 place-names in South East Dorset, stretching from the modern boundary of Hampshire, along the Purbeck coast, to just east of Weymouth (Fig. 1). Continuing the trend of place-names throughout England, most names have Old English (OE) origins, as the Anglo-Saxons renamed places as they immigrated to land which was largely swamp or forest.1 However, there are three names of Brittonic origin. Welsh influence is expected due to the relatively close proximity to Wales. Figure 2 shows the large amount of surviving Celtic names in Dorset. For a similar reason I have found no direct Old Norse linguistic influence because Dorset was securely in the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Wessex when Danelaw was enacted in the 9th century to separate Viking invaders. Despite large Roman settlements at Poole, there is little evidence of the Latin language because it was not generally spoken in rural areas.2 Although, Dorchester, to the west of my corpus, retains the chester element because a Roman road went from there to Wimborne Minster and down to Poole Harbour. On the other hand, there are many Old French (OFr) place-name elements which originate from Norman aristocratic family personal names. I will be dividing the place-names by Figure 1 Maps illustrating the position of my corpus. whether they are topographical, habitative or Place-names marked in red are derived from OE, blue personal and within each category will study the have Celtic elements, yellow have Norman family names’ linguistic origins, offering more insight names, green are modern names, and pink have Latin or into the area’s history and language change.
