“THORP” на русском языке

Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and to a lesser extent East Anglia, are full of place-names ending in by, thorp , and other Scandinavian elements.

The most obvious evidence of a Scandinavian presence is preserved in place names, notably those ending in by or thorpe .

The lesser topographical names like thorpe , and in Norwegian-dominated areas thwaite, were marginal settlements and clearings.
