Can anyone identify placename please? Complete thankyou
« on: Sunday 29 January 12 09:21 GMT (UK) »
If anyone with local knowledge in Cambridgeshire could help, I would be grateful.

What is the second word after Little for this place name?

Thank you for your help

Swaffham Bulbeck used to be known as Little Swaffham.

It looks like Swaffen to me, which might be Swaffham
