1 janv. 1579 - stulp

Description:

An early spelling of stoop. 1454 <i>Et in mercede Johannis Stede carpentarij ponantis unum stulpum in Walmegate</i>, York (SS192/78); 1490 <i>the wyff of the said Richard Wryght</i> [<i>ought to knell</i>]<i> next to the stulp of the said fourem end</i>, Kirkburton (Morehouse63); 1579 <i>Thomas Hirste … shall make a newe gate and new stulpes at the water side</i>, Dewsbury (YAJ21/410). It apparently gave rise to a by-name, possibly an uncomplimentary nickname: 1333 ‘William <i>Stulp</i> was seised of a moiety of a bovate in Thornes’ (WCR3/223); <i>c.</i>1344 ‘Thomas <i>Stulppe</i> of <i>Catthal</i>’, Hunsingore (YRS76/86).
