 ALL SAINTS’ OFFORD D’ARCY WITH OFFORD CLUNY
The origin of OFFORD is either the ‘Upper Ford’, or the ‘Ford of Oppa’ (a saxon chief).
CLUNY comes from the French monastery of Cluny in Burgundy, which owned the village; while D’ARCY which looks very French, was apparently ‘le Daneys’ or ‘Dacus’.
In 1199 the patron of Offord D’Arcy was John the Dane, knight, who witnessed an agreement in 1227 between the men of Offord and the abbot and monastery of Cluny.
