[It is well established that some assibilation of Germanic k occurred in Northumbrian as in other dialects of English, but the extent to which non-initial k was affected has remained open to question. A study of the complete place-name material indicates that in the north of England k was retained as a stop in final position. In the county of Northumberland only, medial k was assibilated before i/j , and in the sequence - ik - + palatal vowel; elsewhere in the North medial k was in all situations retained as a stop.]
