Forms: Middle English halche, Middle English–1500s hawch, Middle English–1600s hawgh, Middle English– haugh (1700s haw); also in north. Engl. halgh as in Greenhalgh.

Etymology: apparently a phonetic descendant of Old English healh, halh ‘corner, nook’ (see hale n.¹): compare Scots sauch, saugh < Old English sealh; Scots tauch = Middle English talȝ.

Scottish and north dialect.

a. A piece of flat alluvial land by the side of a river, forming part of the floor of the river valley.The original sense was perhaps ‘corner or nook (of land) in the bend or angle of the river’. A northern stream usually crosses and recrosses the floor of its valley, striking the base of the slope on each side alternately, and forming a more or less triangular ‘haugh’ within its bend, on each side in turn.
