BUCKLAND, manor in Portsmouth
Old English 'bocland'='land whose tenure is confirmed in writing', cf Kennedy (1985), Rumble (1987). A further Buckland is in Lymington (1262 'Bocland'); though the earliest spelling of this, 1236 'Buckeland' distinctly suggests the Old English genitive plural of 'bucc'='(fallow) buck', the others do not.
