Snitterby

Snitterby is a village and civil parish in the West Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.

The place name, Snitterby, seems to contain an unrecorded Old English personal name Syntra, + bȳ (Old Norse), a farmstead, a village, so possibly, 'Syntra's farm or settlement'.

[3] Eilert Ekwall suggests that this personal name is a derivative of the Old English word snotor, snytre meaning 'wise'[4] The place appears in the Domesday survey of 1086 as Esnetrebi (twice) and Snetrebi.

[6] He returned to spend his last years in Snitterby but left behind family in Ireland, several of whom also became distinguished judges, including Nicholas de Snyterby, possibly his nephew, in the next generation [7] and Reginald de Snyterby, who died in about 1436.

It passes south of White House Farm, and along Atterby Lane, then crosses Bishop Norton Road, and meets Ermine Street directly to the west.
