kathleenmary Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 yes it does appear to be of norse origin what fascinates me is why did this word survive when others did'nt?

mr_blue_owl Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Our 'Lump' on the Cross was Wordsworth Ave, Remington Road Morral Road, Monteney Road & Monteney Crescent. It encompassed St Peter's School, Monteney Infants and Juniors and Colley Park (formerly the corn field) I remember walking from our house near St Paul's church to Keppels Column and back on a few occasions, which was a fair old slog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rapido Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 It was a common saying when I was little although it was a rem my grandad used rather than my parents. I'd be interested to know if there is any older meaning behind the term 'lump' too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
