The EPNS was founded in 1923 in order to carry out the Survey of English Place-Names. It has now published more than 80 volumes in the Survey, and is established as a substantial scholarly society of international standing.

In recent years the EPNS has also published a range of volumes supplementary to the Survey, including the annual Journal, which first appeared in 1969. Click here for some account of EPNS history.
