Description:

This was formerly a word for the male salmon during the spawning season and it is on record in Old English. I have noted references to <i> kepyrs </i>in the Calder near Halifax in 1430 and <i> kepirs frye </i>in the Colne in 1467 (MD225), evidence of how far upstream salmon could formerly be caught.
