River Glen, Lincolnshire
The River Glen is a river in Lincolnshire, England with a short stretch passing through Rutland near Essendine. The river's name appears to derive from a Brythonic Celtic language but there is a strong early English connection. Naming In the language of the Ancient Britons, which survives today as Welsh, Cornish and Breton, the neighbouring rivers, the Glen and the Welland seem to have been given contrasting names. The Welland flowed from the area underlain by the Northampton Sands which in many places are bound together by iron oxide to form ironstone. In the Roman period, the sands were easily worked as arable land and the ironstone was dug for smelting. In both cases, the ground was exposed to erosion which meant that silt was carried down to The Fens by the river. In modern Welsh, ''gwaelod'' (from Late Proto-British ''*Woelǫd-'') means bottom and its plural, ''gwaelodion'' means sediment. Among the medieval forms of the name 'Welland' is Weolod; the river could hav ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
