You learn things on this thread...

Steeton also has a branch of the Priory hospital group.

That was a surprise as it's less than 2 miles from where I live...

Bolton is claimed to be a palindrome of Ipswich in the famous Monty Python dead parrot sketch.

Bolton is home to a cat rehoming charity, as, more famously is Battersea (and dogs...).

This depends on how strictly I apply the rules. The post you have linked to contravenes the rule that repeat clues are not permitted.

Associations provided should be clearly dissimilar to the one already stated in the previous posting. However, anything that clearly plagiarises any of the previous posting and as of now anything that has clear similarities to any of the previous posting, is now not permitted.

Can I respectfully post this clarification and adjudication made many months ago by the quiz-setter.

Rossett has also suffered from severe flooding in recent years.

See recent adjudication posting.

It sounds like the future's not very promising for the folks of that last small settlement.

Perhaps the more optimistic would prefer to live in Hope [Derbyshire]

The saxon St Werburh, or Werburgh, or Werburga, is the Patron Saint of Chester.
Another church dedicated to her is at Wembury, near Plymouth.
