PAULSGROVE in Cosham
There are numerous English names where it remains uncertain whether the
original form contains Old English 'graf'='grove' 'grof'='groove' in some
topographical sense, or 'graefe, graef'='diggings'. This is one of them. The
first element is the man's name 'Paelli'. The present quarry in Portsdown, above
Paulsgrove, is modern.
