To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
R. 1252.
Charter 1150. Holmcoltram CI. R. 1290, Holcoltram P. R. 1201. 1330, 1342 ; Ch. R. 1300.
Holcultram CI. R. 1235.
Hodgson Hinde has identified this name with the mansio of Culterham belonging to Lindisfarne in the ninth cent.; see Publications of Surtees Society, vol. 51, p. 68. The first el. seems to be O.N. holmr, q.v. in W.L. The second el. may be compared with Culter, a vil. in Lanarksh., and is possibly a pers. n., such as Ceolthryth; Searle cites Ceolthrythe bee from an O.E. charte...r. Or it may be the O.N. woman's n. Koliorfa, cited by Lind. The last el. seems to be O.E. ham, q.v. in W.L. For holm at the beginning of a pi. n. see next article ; the addition of the prefix was prob.
subsequent to the formation of the original name Cultram.
The whole name may thus mean ' the holm or riverside meadow-land called after the farm Cultram, i.e., Ceolthryth's farm,' or ' Coltorfa's farm.' x HOLMROOK. Irton.
The second el. may be the O.N. pers. n. Hrokr, the English form of which was Roc.
