headstockn.

Brit.

/ˈhɛdstɒk/, U.S.

/ˈhɛdˌstɑk/

Forms: see head n.¹ and stock n.¹

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: head n.¹, stock n.¹

Etymology: < head n.¹ + stock n.¹In Old English and Middle English, except for the isolated occurrence in quot. OE at sense 1, attested only as a boundary marker in Anglo-Saxon charter bounds (chiefly from Wiltshire and adjoining counties); compare:eOE Bounds (Sawyer 470) in S. Miller Charters of New Minster, Winchester (2001) 62 Þonon forð to heafodstoccum [c1425 hedstoke].lOE Bounds (Sawyer 695) in A. R. Rumble Property & Piety Early Medieval Winchester (2002) 196 Of þære fulan flode &lang stret to þam eafodstoccan, of þam heafodstoccan andlang stret innan Icenan.a1425 (?OE) Bounds (Sawyer 630) in S. E. Kelly Charters of Shaftesbury Abbey (1996) 84 Þannen eft on heued stockes. The precise sense of the compound in such examples is uncertain and disputed. It has sometimes been taken as showing sense 1. (Quot. OE at sense 1 renders a post-classical Latin source (with a setting in Asia Minor) but has been expanded in a way that suggests reference to contemporary practice.) Alternative interpretations of the boundary marker include ‘tree with a headlike shape due to pollarding’, ‘tree pollarded at head height’ (compare P. R. Kitson in J. Fisiak Medieval Dialectol. (1995) 94–6,121–2), and ‘stake or tree stump marking the bounds of a field headland’ (compare head n.¹ 39a). Unfortunately, none of these is a topographical feature for which physical evidence is likely to survive long. Also attested in place names, as Heuedstok' , Dorset (1288; earlier as Henestok' (1251–2), Esthevedstok (1269); now Hewstock), Hevedstokke , Dorset (early 14th cent.; now Yewstock). It has been argued that the situation of these places on parish boundaries is of significance, perhaps supporting interpretation as sense 1.

†1. A stake (or perhaps a tree stump) on which the decapitated head of a criminal is placed. Obsolete. rare.
