1 gen 1608 anni - outgang

Descrizione:

A word for a way or road out of a township or hamlet, often one which was used regularly by cattle on their way to pasture. The term has an Old English origin and it occurs frequently in Yorkshire documents over a wide area: 1189-99 <i>xv acris terre ... inter Vtghang Johannis de Laxington et Vtghang de Skeltun,</i> Howden (YAJ11/187); 1324 <i>usque ad portam de Norwragrene et sic transeundo per viam suam que dicitur le Owtegange,</i> Healaugh (YRS92/53); 1413 ‘abutted on a meadow ... on the north side and <i>le Westutgange </i>on the south ... the said <i>utgang</i>’, Bagby (YRS50/19); <i>c</i>.1450 <i>common pastur’ to all their bestes ... with fre entre and goynge owte to the mor’ by a large way, the qwhyche is called the owtegang</i>, New Malton (SS85/58); <i>c</i>.1516 <i>apud le owte gange abbuttandam super Todhill gate</i>, Wombwell (YRS92/205). A few examples point to the outgang as a way to a neighbouring locality: 1442 ‘a Watergate in the <i>outegange</i> which leads to the forest of Galtres’, York (SS186/132). Settlement sites might take their name from a location adjoining the way: 1301 <i>De Galfrido Atteoutgang’ iiijs jd,</i> Wath (YRS21/6); 1608 <i>John Hyl of the outgange</i>, Malham (DDMa).
