Leland 1535-47

|
Extracts for Hampshire from the Itinerary written by John
Leland, 1535-43, transcribed using Minns reading of the
Itinerary, deriving from the third edition published by Thomas
Hearne, 1769.

Minns, G W, Rev: 1907=1910: Leland
in Hampshire: ProfHFC: vol.6 supplement: pp.43-68
|
|
Minns prefered to 'retain Leland's quaint spellings and
archaic words, which are a study for the English philologist.' He
incorporated Leland's marginal notes (and probably commentary by
William Burton soon after Leland's death.) Minns's commentary
notes are included as are our own few comments.

|
Leland's journey enters Hampshire from Wiltshire near
Clarendon Park, travels via Stockbridge, Winchester, Otterbourne,
Southampton, Hamble, Titchfield, Gosport, Portsmouth, Southwick,
Wickham, Bishops Waltham, to Winchester again.
