1 янв 1560 г. - brereball

Описание:

From ‘brier-ball’ which may have been a gall found on rose-bushes. The contexts in which this word occurs suggest that it was a reference to the colour of cloth used in making items of clothing: 1528 <i>a brereball jacket</i>, Burley (Th9/261); 1543 a <i>coterclothe of brereball</i>, Potternewton (Th19/90); 1560 <i>one brearball gown</i>, Thorner (Th27/297). These and other references are all from the Leeds area.
