Warwickshire Response Books

Description

Response books, completed in ms. phonetic script, recording the answers of informants from Survey of English Dialects (SED) localities in Warwickshire to the Dieth-Orton Questionnaire. Responses were recorded by SED fieldworkers Stanley Ellis and Peter Wright at Nether Whitacre, Hockley Heath, Stoneleigh, Napton on the Hill, Aston Cantlow, Lighthorne and Shipston on Stour. Each response book bears ms. editorial markings relating to the editing of the recorded responses for publication in the SED West Midlands Counties Basic Material volume. Response books for Warwickshire were edited by Eduard Kolb in 1965, and by Michael Barry and G. Price in 1966. The response books are retained in the numerical order assigned to SED localities, 17 Wa 1-7.
