Cheers, Dave.

Where in England is an old Welsh hill and forest?

 

[Jsybarry]

Does this have anything to do with moving boundaries and were on the part of Chester's Deva Stadium that is in England?

 

[hornethologist a.k.a. theo]

Not boundaries, Barry. It's some way away from Chester...more south east England in fact.

South East England makes me think of Epping Forest, but it has no great height, although used today by mountain bikers. It has been used in lots of films, but I don't know if they had a Welsh connection. This is supposed to be a puzzle and is!

There's the Welsh Harp nature reserve near me but I'm guessing it isn't that?

 

[hornethologist a.k.a. theo]

Not that Dan...it's all in a name!

 

[colognehornet]

Anything to do with land which belonged to the Tudors ? Or to do with the origins of the word Welsh, which meant foreigner in anglo saxon.

 

[hornethologist a.k.a. theo]

Not Tudors, Cologne, but certainly to do with old Welsh words.

 

[hornethologist a.k.a. theo]

South London.

 

[yorkshirehornet]

any clues?

 

[hornethologist a.k.a. theo]

It's all in a name, rather like Pencoed in Wales.

 

[yorkshirehornet]

Dulwich?

 

[hornethologist a.k.a. theo]

Very very close, geographically speaking, Yorkie. The name of this place is believed to be one of the few in London derived from Welsh words.

Looking looking.. Is it Wimbledon?

Pen + coed became Penge.

Have a go, Yorkie...you've earned it!

 

[oldfrenchhorn]

Looking at Wiki it is all spelt out for us there. Never got near it. I was still going up and down Box Hill.

I was looking for all places in London beginning with something vaguely Celtic like Cam (Cym) etc. and got bogged down in Camberwell
