Talk:Doffcocker

Origin of the name

 * I notice that one of the Bolton websites gives this origin of the name Doffcocker
 * The derivation of this name is not clear, but it believed to be formed from the Celtic 'dubh' meaning dark or black, and the Celtic 'cocr' meaning a winding stream, so we get 'dark winding stream' which indeed leads to Doffcocker lodge.
 * I always presumed it was something to do with the occupation doffer. I suspect that it is like many placenames and there are lots of different ideas for the origin but we will never know which is correct.  --jmb 14:25, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
