Radford
Early-attested site in the Parish of Enstone
Historical Forms
- Radeford 1086 DB 1324 Dean
- Rodeford 1316 FA
Etymology
The absence of -e - and the solitary form with -o - suggest that the first element is OE rād , 'riding,' rather than rēad, 'red,' as in most occurrences of the name. The meaning here may be 'ford which can be crossed on horseback.'
