Those who love Chopin will find the source here. Difficulty: intermediate (ABRSM Grade 6–7). The piece calls for flowing left-hand arpeggios, refined pedalling and cultivated tone aw...

Approaches to Local History

Field names are not only interesting in themselves, but also a rich source of information about the communities originating them. The earliest recorded names often describe only the location or nature of the land, but changes in language, technology, social organisation, land ownership and even religious and political thinking have all contributed to a surprisingly complex picture today.
