Etymology
There has perhaps been some confusion in the spelling of this name and Tredington (Wo 172), which is from an OE pers.n. Tyrdda . The forms with Tret -, Tred - can hardly be explained by the OE Trota suggested by Ekwall; but the Trod -, Tred - forms could arise from an OE pers.n. Treoda (a back-mutated form of Treda ), from the root of OE tredan , treodan 'to tread', which is found as a theme in OE Tredewudu (a nickname), in the patronymic of Alwine Treddasunu (Tengvik 164), and possibly in Tredegrove (iii, 136 infra ); OE Treda in BCS 232 is probably an error for Creda , and therefore has no connexion. 'Farmstead associated with Tre (o )da ' v. -ing 4 , tūn . There is, however, better evidence for medial -t - becoming -d - than the reverse (cf. Phonol. § 40a ), but a pers.n. Treota is not evidenced.
