 Cotgrave
The Grantham Canal Environmental Project at Cotgrave is part of an Single Regeneration Budget / Rechar (Coalfields Regeneration) project to provide improvements to the Grantham Canal and to compliment a major colliery reclamation project to form a country park adjoining the canal.
The project, which commenced in February 1998, is funded over 5-years and the majority of the works being undertaken on the canal are due to be completed by March 2001 with a budget of £613k over the whole lifetime of the scheme.
The Cotgrave scheme is a good example of a recreation project linking to the country park, but which maintains the integrity of the canal at the same time as preventing the continued decline which has occurred in the almost 70 years since closure.

 Lancashire: An Early Modern English Dictionaries Corpus
Yet a comparison of the kinds of 'definitions' in the early dictionaries with those fixed senses in the OED entry for this word that are relevant to the Renaissance period (see Figure 1) does question whether referential definition, and the fixed senses it entails, are native to the early period.
OED definitions 2 and 3 are abstract, wordy, and generalized when compared to the concrete, concise, and specific treatment of timber within the Cotgrave and Thomas explanations of mareschaucées and materia.
They define words as if they denote things in the world that are to be handled or seen: "stuffe to build withall" and "the body of the tree vnder the barke" appeal to the world of the senses.

 The Early Modern English Dictionaries Database (EMEDD)
It opens up the complete range of language phenomena in Renaissance English, as lexicographers of the period saw them, and comprises the core of the electronic corpus necessary as a base for writing a modern period dictionary for the language of Shakespeare and his contemporaries.
Cotgrave (1611) describes the words "Calepiner" and "Interpreter" respectively: "To interprete, or translate, exactly, or word by word," and "To interpret, expound; translate, shew the meaning, tell the signification, of" (note here that translating and showing meaning fall inside a section bounded by a semi-colon, as if they were synonyms).
My search of only letters AA-AC in one work, Cotgrave's French-English dictionary of 1611 (about 10% of the total textbase), yielded 36 revisions to OED entries: six words not in the OED, four unrecorded senses for words that were there, and 26 antedatings (Lancashire 1993).
