Sunnyside discusses changes to British house names from medieval naming practices to the present-day. The demise of pub names and shop names such as la Worm on the Hope and the Golden Tea Kettle & Speaking Trumpet are detailed alongside the rise of heraldic names such as the Red Lion.

Portrait

Dr Laura Wright is a historical sociolinguist. As an undergraduate she studied English Language at the University of Edinburgh, and completed her doctorate at the University of Oxford, where she analysed the grammatical and lexical make-up of the Medieval Latin/Anglo-Norman French/Middle English mixed-language documents of London Bridge. She is currently a Reader in English Language at the University of Cambridge, where she has worked since 1996. She publishes on medieval mixed-language business writing, on the development of extraterritorial Englishes, on the language of London and trading, and the development of place-names.
