SUMMARY:The history of Amersham through place names
DESCRIPTION:£10 per person including a glass of wine or soft drink \nHolloway Lane\, Chesham Bois in 1937\nWhy does Amersham have so many Stanleys? Westanley Avenue\, Stanley Hill Avenue and Stanley Hill for example. How did Copperkins Lane get its name\, or High & Over? Place names give us clues to our history\, particularly local history\, as the names of our streets and buildings often reflect local events and local people. Some Amersham names were evidently inspired by important events such as Lollard Close or nature or geography\, such as Cherry Lane and Station Road. Others were inspired by people\, whether they are the great and the good\, such as Gilbert Scott Court or Artisans and humble farmers such as Loudhams Road. \nSome names have inspired different stories and interpretations such as Turpin Row\, which despite a great story does not have a connection with Dick Turpin\, and Gore Hill\, which was not the site of a 9th century battle with the Danes\, so fierce that the blood ran down the hill. \nFind out more of the stories about the origins of our local place names\, whether based on facts or local legends\, from local historian Alison Bailey. \nThis talk complements our current temporary exhibition Rooted in the Land. \n  \nHow did the Henry Allen Nursery get its name?
