Problems of Place-Name Study: Being a course of Three Lectures delivered at King's College under the auspices of the University of London, by A. Mawer, published 1929 (Cambridge University Press)

In the review, which appeared in Sussex Notes & Queries for May, 1930, of the second volume of The Place-Names of Sussex, it was suggested that further illustrative comment by the Editors would have been welcome. It therefore seems appropriate to draw the attention of Sussex readers to these lectures, which were delivered by Mr. Mawer during the time when he was preparing the volumes on Sussex, and have recently been published in book form. The subject is, of course, dealt with generally, but Sussex examples are so freely quoted by way of illustration that the lectures may almost be regarded as a supplement to the more formal volumes dealing exclusively with the county.
Of the 363 names in the Index locorum no fewer than 103 are the names of places of Sussex; and it is clear that the county has proved a particularly rich mine for those in search of place-name material, and also that the work done on Sussex names has been most useful in throwing light on problems which affect other parts of England.
For anyone interested in Sussex names the lectures are of the greatest possible value, and suggest several fruitful lines of investigation. Particular mention may be made of the suggestion, first made in the Introduction to the Sussex volumes and further developed in these lectures, that the early history of the Hastings district, and perhaps of the greater portion of East Sussex, is different to that of the rest of the county. This is a point to which it is hoped to return later. The object of this note is to emphasize the fact that no one interested in the subject, and in particular no Sussex student, should fail to read Mr. Mawer's lectures.

The Place-names of Sussex, Part I: The Rapes of Chichester, Arundel and Bramber, by Allen Mawer and Frank Merry Stenton, published 1929 (Cambridge University Press) accessible at: W.S.R.O. [Lib 10138][Lib 8294] & The Keep [LIB/500116][Lib/504721] & West Sussex Libraries & East Sussex Libraries

The publication by the English Place-Name Society of the first of the two volumes which it is devoting to Sussex is an event of very great importance for all students of Sussex History and indeed for everyone interested in whatever capacity in the topography of Sussex: and there can be no doubt that this volume and its companion dealing with East Sussex will rank high amongst the records of the county.

The Place-names of Sussex, Part II: The Rapes of Lewes, Pevensey and Hastings, by Allen Mawer and Frank Merry Stenton, published 1930 (Cambridge University Press) accessible at: W.S.R.O. [Lib 10137][Lib 5597][Lib 8295] & The Keep [LIB/500115][Lib/504722] & West Sussex Libraries & East Sussex Libraries

The second, and concluding, volume of the English Place-Name Society on Sussex has followed the first at a commendably short interval, and brings to completion a very notable piece of work, which must long remain a standard book of reference for all students of Sussex history.
This volume deals with the place-names in the three eastern rapes; and as these are larger in area than the western rapes the material to be worked through is more extensive. There is no further introductory matter, though many readers would have welcomed comment from Professor Mawer and perhaps fresh light on the early settlement of Sussex. But after the individual names have been disposed of there is, as in the other volumes in the series, a chapter on field names, and another on the distribution of the various elements. Finally there is the indispensable index to the two volumes.
