Thanks to everyone for all the help. Think I've finished now. Just not sure about L. I have Longleat, but can't see why.

I think that I recall 'leat' being a stream - and with long ago (way back) that'd give the stately home?

and Wikipedia has:
'A leat (also lete or leet, or millstream) is the name, common in the south and west of England and in Wales, for an artificial watercourse or aqueduct dug into the ground, especially one supplying water to a watermill or its mill pond.'
