medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Just guessing, but the MS seems to have spent some time in Devon, as
there is a village called Galmpton on the south coast of Devon :

and Colyford also appears to be located on that same coast:

There must be other locations by the same names in the British Isles
but the fact that these two are located about 100 km apart might be
more than just mere coincidence...
