hargreaves

A surname.
This surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is a locational name from any of the various places in Cheshire, Northamptonshire and Suffolk called "Hargrave" or "Hargreave" recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Haregrave" and "Haragraua" respectively. The meaning can be derived from either the Olde English pre 7th century "har", meaning grey or "hara", meaning "hare", plus the element "graf", grove, or "groefe" meaning a thicket. Locational surnames were developed when former inhabitants of a place moved to another area, usually to seek work, and were best identified by the name of their birthplace. Early examples of the surname include: William de Hargreve , and Henry Hargrevys . In the modern idiom the name is spelt Hargreave, Hargrave, Hargreves and Hargroves. Probably the most notable bearer of the name is James Hargreaves , inventor of the "spinning-jenny" circa 1764. A Coat of Arms granted to the Hargreaves family of Broad Oak, Lancashire, is a shield divided quarterly gold and green, on a fesse ermine between three stags courant counterchanged, a red fret. A green buck''s head erased, attired gold, with a silver collar charged with a red fret, in the mouth a sprig of oak, forms the Crest. The Motto "Fortitudine et prudentia" translates as "By fortitude and prudence". The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Geoffrey de Hargrave, which was dated 1188, in the "Pipe Rolls of Devonshire", during the reign of King Henry 11, known as the "Builder of Churches", 1154 - 1189.

esh winning

Esh Winning is a former colliery village in County Durham, in England. It is situated in the Deerness Valley 5 miles (8 km) to the west of Durham. The village was founded by the Pease family in the 1850s to service a new mine on the Esh Estate.

The name of Esh Winning comes from two elements, firstly the older nearby village of Esh, a Saxon term for Ash, and secondly Winning, which was a Victorian term used when coal was found.
Esh Winning was served by the stone and timber built Waterhouses railway station on the Deerness Valley Railway which opened on 1 November 1877, and closed to passengers on 29 October 1951, and freight on 28 December 1964. The route of the line is now part of the eight-mile Deerness Valley Railway Path.

The village has a football team, Esh Winning F.C., who currently play in the Northern League Division One, although their ground is in West Terrace in nearby Waterhouses.

Sir Bobby Robson, former manager of the England national football team, grew up in the neighbouring village of Langley Park and was educated for a time in Esh Winning. A local park has been named in his honour.
