It was by reference to local place-names that residents found their way around their local area. The names of fields, meadows, vineyards and other plots of land can therefore be found throughout the land registry records of the past. Studying these local place names provides a wealth of valuable information on the history of the landscape, local activities and the language used in our Vaud communes.
