STRATFIELD SAYE and TURGIS, two parishes
Hypothetical Old English 'Straetfeld'='open land by the paved road', ie: the
Roman road (Margary 4a) from Silchester to London, also known as The Devil's
Highway. One manor was held by John de Stutevill' in 1244 (cf 13th century
'Stratfelde Stuteville') and later by Richard de Say (cf 1263 'Stratfeldsay').
The other, smaller one was held by the Turgys family from the late 13th century
(cf early 13th century, 1287 'Petit Stratfeld, Stratfeud Turgis'). Both
specifiers are Norman surnames; the first comes from the place name 'Sai' in
Orne (Normandy); the second is a Frenchified form of the Scandinavian given name
'Thorgils'.
Stratfield Saye house is the seat of the Dukes of Wellington, hence the
adjacent 'Wellington Monument' and 'Wellington Country Park'.
