[I'm going to assume you meant the Grangetown in North Yorkshire, as opposed to the one in Cardiff].

The area around Waltham-on-the-Wolds was also rich in ironstone, and still has the remains of some ironstone railways.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Wombwell was also affected by the 2008 Lincolnshire earthquake.

Elsecar

was also an important colliery in the S.Yorkshire coalfield

I have sent a PM to you...was it not the Derwent reservoir in the Longdendale Valley, not far from Glossop that was the location.

Lewes, like Uppingham, had a Norman motte-and-bailey castle.

Chichester is the county town (or city in this case) in the other half of Sussex, and like Lewes it is some distance from being the largest settlement in the county, even if you ignore Brighton & Hove.

[I'm going to assume you meant the Grangetown in North Yorkshire, as opposed to the one in Cardiff]

Uh, actually, I meant the one in Cardiff. I didn't even realise there was another one. But, seeing as you all have continued anyway, it would be easier to just play along than act like the tough dictator.

Ignoring both the Cathedral and the Ship Canal connectional options that have now been used twice with regards to Chichester......

Dorking also lies on the line of the Roman road called Stane Street.

Nuneaton is another place with "eaton" in it.

Kempston is also on the route of the river Great Ouse.

Redcar is also the site of an Anglo-Saxon burial ground.

 

[Welshman]

Harrogate also has a Stray

 

[Schnellzug]

red cars are more commonly associated with Italy; British manufacturers tended towards Green. One of the few remaining British car manufacturers is Morgan, who are based at Malvern, Worcestershire.

alright, I was beaten to it, but I like my red car link, so i will keep it

 

[Welshman]

All right then!

Harrogate & Malvern are both spa towns.

As is Buxton.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Castleton is another Derbyshire town with a limestone cavern.

 

[Welshman]

Not to be confused with Castleton in Greater Manchester, which used to be the junction for the line to Bury & Bolton, which is now partly adapted by a Heritage Railway.

Todmorden also lies on the line of the Rochdale Canal.

Rotherham is also served by First Group buses.

I must apologise if my previous post on this thread caused any confusion, this was my mistake, which Paul very kindly corrected. Thank you Paul

Coalbrookdale in Shropshire was also a leading settlement in the cast iron trade when this new industry was first was developed.

 

[Ivo]

Coalbrookdale owes its heritage to one Abraham Darby I, whose family had noble connections in the Dudley area.

 

[Welshman]

Beamish also has an open-air museum/industrial heritage site.
