hazel woodn.

Brit.

/ˈheɪzl wʊd/, U.S.

/ˈheɪzəl ˌwʊd/

Forms: see hazel n. and wood n.¹

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: hazel n., wood n.¹

Etymology: < hazel n. + wood n.¹Attested earlier in place names: compare e.g. Haselwode , Horsted Keynes, Surrey (1274; now Hazelwood). Compare also earlier Heseleuuode , Tadcaster, West Riding, Yorkshire (1086; now Hazlewood) and Hesselwod , Skipton, West Riding, Yorkshire (a1227; now Hazlewood), in which the form of the first element appears to have been influenced by the early Scandinavian cognate (see discussion at hazel n. and adj.).

a. A wood or thicket of hazels.In Chaucer's Troilus & Criseyde, the character Pandarus makes three references to hazel wood which are of uncertain significance (see also quots. at sense 1b); quot. a1413 at this sense is usually taken as a (derisive) reference to the futility of Troilus's hopes, with the haselwode þere Ioly Robyn pleyde standing as the type of a pastoral or romantic ‘neverland’ (compare quot. a1450, which may have similar connotations). For summaries of various interpretations of these uses see S. A. Barney in L. D. Benson et al. Riverside Chaucer (1987) 1041/1 and K. P. Wentersdorf in Stud. Philol. 89 (1992) 293–313. Cf. also the earlier use of hazel bough in an apparently similar sense in quot. ?a1300 at hazel n. and adj. Compounds 2a.
