Etymology
Weston's Fm (6″) seems to be connected with the terra voc. Westenyes of 1398 (Ct ). That form is difficult of interpretation.Perhaps it is the name of a piece of land on the farm. The land here is low-lying and marshy and yes may be the pl. of ey (from eg ) 'island of land in marsh.' If so, this land was known as 'Weston-eys' and en is a weakened form of on . The farm is on the western border of the parish.
