Talk:Hampton (place name)

Okehampton
The Cambridge Dictionary entry for OKEHAMPTON Devon on page 450 contains an error: Ochementone 1086 should show OchEggENTONE as recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. Compare the hand written 'g' with others on the same page. The name element Eg is Old English ēġ and is obviously a reference to the wedge of land enclosed between the tributary rivers of the River Okement.
