Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of the Family of Sherborn
The sense of the other I cannot just now give. There are two bourns in English. One is bourn, a boundary, a French word, and not used in English place names except in very modern instances. The other bourn is very abundant and common, from anglo-saxon burn, a bourn or stream or river, the familiar Scotch burn. This is sure to be the final syllable in any case and in both instances.
