St Peter's Church, Monkton Farleigh is part of the Benefice of North Bradford-on-Avon and Villages, alongside St James at South Wraxall, St Nicholas at Winsley and Christ Church at Bradford-on-Avon.

Good one, but ISTR that railway associations are not permitted in this game.

As per #38,818

On reflection, the idea of this game is to make comparisons and associations between settlements. The idea of Station Associations is to explicitly make comparisons and associations between railway stations.

Reading back to 2011/12, the sprit of the game has been to minimise overlap between the two games. Generic railway associations are allowed, and examples exist from the start, what we wish to avoid here is comparing train stations as that lays specifically in the other game.

I think that rule was slightly relaxed.

Fair enough! My memory is not as good as it used to be in my younger days.

I have a feeling if relaxations to existing quiz thread rules are made, the forum quizmaster panel would make an entry in the rules section so that thread contributors do not make non-conforming posting submissions in the future times.

Assuming that Aughnacloy remains the last correct entry, I'll continue as follows:

The town is served by Bus Eireann Expressway Route 32, connecting the town to both Dublin and Letterkenny. The stop immediately before Aughnacloy on the route from Dublin is Emyvale, where it stops at the Scarna Inn.

Glaslough in County Monaghan was also once administered by the Barony of Trough.

Glaslough is the furthest north of all towns which have won the "Tidy Towns" competition in the Republic of Ireland. The furthest south is Rosscarbery in County Cork
