A geographical reference or surname, possibly relating to a glen or valley with a bridge or river crossing.
Compound of 'glen' (a valley, from Gaelic 'gleann') and 'dover' (possibly from Old English 'dofre' meaning water or a crossing). Historical place names combining valley descriptions with water features.
Glendover appears in Welsh and English historical records, connected to the famous Owain Glyndŵr—the name pattern of glen-based settlements tells us how Celtic peoples named their lands after geographical features!
