Ely has hosted the University Boat Race once [in 1944]. Instead of the Thames, it was held on the Great Ouse. Oxford won.

Walter Coffin, who sank the first mine in the Rhondda, came from a tanning family in Bridgend.

Builth Wells is another one of the four spa villages of mid-Wales

But it doesn't have a station, not an open one anyway - is that allowed?

Assuming it is. Woodhall Spa is another faded spa town with a closed railway

A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England

I am somewhat confused here from what you say above, as this is the SETTLEMENT and not the STATION association quiz, which really does not need to have any reference to railways in the answers.

Lincoln also lies on the line of the long-distance footpath called "The Viking Way".

The composer Malcolm Arnold was born in Northampton.
Amongst many other things, he was patron of the Rochdale Youth Orchestra.

Not to be confused with Penrhyn, which has no pirates but a lovely country house in the form of a castle.
