This scholarly and accessible dictionary, the first of its kind in Wales, covers the names of human settlements in Wales, as well as of prominent features of the landscape. For each name, the authors provide the evidence of historical forms and dates, identify the etymological elements, comment on the derivation, meaning and linguistic development, and explain the topographic, social or historical significance. Based on the authors' original research plus that of other place-name scholars past and present, this authoritative dictionary also includes an invaluable glossary of place-name elements. First published in 2007 and now in paperback for the first time.
