Map of place-names in '-by'. Long recognised as an indicator of early Scandanavian settlement in the east and north of England. Experiment with the Ordnance Survey 1:50000 Gazetteer. The scatter of Welsh matches shows the downside to the approach, but the map does shows the main focus very well. Basemap from SRTM data reprojected to Ordnance Survey National Grid with application of colour ramp and hill shading. Labelling on the faint side but still experimenting with sea and coasts.
