Aberbargoed / Aberbargod
(aber+bargod)
This means 'mouth of the boundary river' as
the stream Nant Bargod Rhymni formed
the boundary between two areas of land many years ago. The
word 'bargod' can
mean eaves but in this context means boundary.
The 'e' has been mistakenly inserted into the name
since at least 1629, as if the word derives from 'coed' meaning
wood - as in other local names that refer
to wood such as Hengoed and Argoed.
