Places - England

The list of places in England which have 'thorpe' as part of their name should not be considered as comprehensive. Think of Abthorpe and Apethorpe in Northamptonshire, Althorpe in Lincolnshire and Thorpe Langton in Leicestershire. There must be many more places. The equivalent word in Dutch is 'dorp'. Did the word gain traction during King William's time?Haynesta (talk)
