Paddle Cottage
Early-attested site in the Parish of Edgcote
Etymology
“If we can Pad-well overgoe and Horestone we can see;
Then Lords of England we shall be.”
The Horestone he tells us was a famous old stone on the borders of Warwickshire (? Oxfordshire) in Wardlinton (sic) Field. The name Padwell repeats itself in Padwellestreme in Long Buckby (1458Ct ). It is doubtless a compound of OE pad (e ), 'toad,' and wielle .
