The Cambridge Dictionary of English Place-Names is now due to be published
in November 2003, at a price of £175 (£200 after 3 months), and the slogan
"The ultimate in place-name reference".
There is one point that has been worrying me for some time. It was based on
the Ordnance Survey Road Atlas of Great Britain (1983). Does anyone know
what is the closest modern equivalent? Or are there any remaining caches of
the original edition?
