Date of visit: 26th August 2020

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The place name seems to contain an Old Norse personal name Þurferð + tūn (Old English), an enclosure; a farmstead; a village; an estate; thus “Farm of a man called Thurferth”. There are 19 such place names (Scandinavian personal name followed by tūn ) in Nottinghamshire, all of them in the Domesday survey, and all apparently ancient villages.
