Etymology
Camela Ho & Camela Wood, Camelinglay 13 Drax 21, Camillas 1840TA , Camela 1817 M. The situation of Camelinglay is defined in Drax 21 as versus nemor ' de Berlay 'towards the wood of Barlow' (23infra ), that is, towards the north of the township and therefore in the immediate vicinity of Camela Ho and Wood. The first el. is clearly connected with that of Camblesforth (supra ), and, though it could mean 'woodland-glade of Camele' (v. ing 4 , lēah ), it may well be an example of an elliptical formation 'glade belonging to the folk of Camblesforth' in which only the first theme of the original p.n. is used to form the folk-name (cf. EPN i, 302 (d ), s.v. -ingas ).
