1 gen 1574 anni - oregrave

Descrizione:

A place where iron ore has been mined. The word seems to be much older than ‘orepit’, and has an origin that goes back to Old English. The West Riding place-name Orgreave is clearly from that period for it was listed in Domesday Book: minor place-names include <i>Orgraveker</i> in an undated thirteenth-century deed for Sharlston (WYAS776) and <i>the Orgraves</i> in Rawmarsh in 1574 (PNWR1/177).
