Could someone please read the placename ??
« on: Sunday 17 May 09 20:40 BST (UK) »



I've been trying to work out the name of this place on behalf of grange72, hopefully someone else might now be able to help please ??

We've been searching for somewhere that Di thought might be Carnholme,
or similar .. ?

Pels.

I think perhaps the letter we think is H could be a P looking at the word Bookeeper.
Is ther such a place as Campolane?

Hi, it's a late post, and I hope I have read it the right way. Cornholme is to be pronounced cornhome. The "L" is silent. I know this as I lived there for 17 years.
