Spelling of Hutcliff / Hutcliffe[edit]

I believe that Hutcliff (without the trailing 'e') is the correct spelling of the wood. This is based primarily on map evidence - both the AZ and the OS maps spell the name of the wood 'Hutcliff Wood', and the name of the road 'Hutcliffe Wood Road'. This inconsistency could reflect a mis-spelling, but the OS map is the most authoritative source we've yet found so I think we should go along with it. See discussion a few days ago at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Sheffield. I tried to link to the OS get-a-map image, but the image is only cached for a short time it seems. You'll need to search for grid reference SK337832 to retrieve it again. --VinceBowdren 11:17, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. After research, wherever there is an error in print, AtoZ does spell Hutcliff Wood without E. So regardless of Hutcliffe Wood Road, Crematorium, Cemetery, Rememberance Monument, it must be spelt without the ending E. A trip on location is needed to assertain the truth, green Council park signs should be around the place with say a more official stance on the subject.

I bow to your research. I know that the etymons are 'Hudda's Cliff,' but I was under the impression that the road and the wood had the same spelling. Maybe you could also comment on where Hutcliff Wood ends and Marriott Wood begins? Rednaxela 12:06, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that Hutcliffe Wood Road divides Hutcliff wood and Marriott wood. That's what it looks like on the map attached to a recent council committee meeting minutes [1] discussing a footpath diversion there. It's possible that that is a screenshot of a chunk of Definitive Map, actually. --VinceBowdren 12:25, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Worth adding that "Hudda's cliff" etymology to the wood's page - is that from a book or another website do you know? --VinceBowdren 12:27, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm driving past the woods on my way to Totley this evening, I'll have a nosey around and look for signage. Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons 13:47, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I can't remember the name of the book, but it gave the etymology of Sheffield's streetnames. Hudda was some sort of stone/iron age chieftain. It would be intriguing to find out who this Marriott guy is too. To my knowledge there are no signs on-site that definitively name either wood. Rednaxela 19:01, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
