The Settlement Association Quiz...Rules:

• Repeating any of the previous two clues or names of settlements in a link is forbidden (you can of course quote a previous post)
• Associations provided should be clearly dissimilar to each of the previous two associations.
• Settlements may be anywhere in the United Kingdom.
• A description of the association should be incorporated in each posting, without simply posting the name only.

For the sake of new contestants, the rules of this quiz are shown above, but I ask that the emboldened rule be particularly noted.
