Middleton on the Hill

Middleton on the Hill is a village in north east Herefordshire, England, near the border with Worcestershire. Middleton-on-the-Hill lies a few miles to the east of the A49 between Ludlow and Leominster. Middleton on the Hill is one of the 53 Thankful Villages in England and Wales that suffered no fatalities during the Great War of 1914 to 1918; as it did not suffer any losses in World War II either, it is one of 13 villages considered "doubly thankful".
==Etymology==
Middleton on the Hill does ''not'' mean "middle town or village" (from Old English ''middel'' "middle" and ''tūn'' "farm, village, estate, enclosure, manor (which gives us the modern English "town") as with most places of the name (e.g. Middleton, Greater Manchester: instead the etymology derives from Old English'' micel'' "large (related to modern English much" and ''tūn'' "farm, village, estate, enclosure, manor", here in the sense "estate" meaning "large village" (i.e. one that is broad in size).〔A.D. Mills, Dictionary of English Place-Names, 2001〕 The name was recorded in 1086 in the Domesday Book as ''Miceltune'' when it was reported as part of the lands belonging to Leominster〔''Domesday Book: A Complete Translation''. London: Penguin, 2003. ISBN 0-14-143994-7 p.497 and 1576〕 "TRE".〔TRE in Latin is ''Tempore Regis Edwardi'', which means in the time of King Edward before the Battle of Hastings.〕 After 1086 it belonged to Durand, the Sheriff, and was worth ten shillings.
