I visited the Ordnance Survey for a talk on their Open Space mapping tool last week.
This is my first attempt at creating a map annotated with what I think are the derivations of the road names.
It’s for a fairly small area of East Harnham. It would be great to create one for the whole of Salisbury – but that may take some time!
If you click on the blue dots, then you should get a short explanation of the road’s name.
Instructions for adding OpenSpace maps to WordPress are here if you’re interested. The OpenSpace product is really good – you can do much more with it than I have – but it needs a couple of tweaks to get it to ‘play nicely’ with WordPress.
