Summary

| Description |
English: Detail of capital in All Saints' Church, Burton Dassett 13th-century carvings in the N aisle. George Miller in "Rambles round the Edge Hills" (Banbury, 1896) conjectures: "As the name Dercett [Dassett] refers to the lair of the wild best it seems probable that these figures were designed to represent the wild beasts of the neighbourhood." But more modern toponymists consider the name to derive from Celtic signifying "oak wood" (cognate with modern Welsh "Coed Derw") rather than the Norse "dyra-settr". |
