About this worksheet
Twelve Anglo-Saxon place-name endings hide in the letter grid of this Year 4 history word search. Each word is part of a place name that Anglo-Saxon settlers left behind: BURY, FIELD, FORD, HAM, INGS, LEY, MERE, STEAD, STOW, TON, WICH and WORTH. Words run across, down or diagonally down. The grid and word list fill the first page, and the answer key on a later page gives the start and end square of each word. The sheet gives no meanings for the endings. It supports the England National Curriculum unit on Anglo-Saxon settlement.
