This article (and its references) contain very little information about the villages themselves - and the village articles are simply a copy of this one. There is an excellent website here which contains a huge wealth of information - about the parish and about its separate parts. I cannot quite understand the comment in italics, repeated on all the three villages:
There seems little point in making the observation: it is obviously a fact that the two (in fact three) villages comprise the area. In my view it simply confuses the reader - and we shouldn't need to do that. The fact of a civil parish containing more than one settlement is hardly unique, and it would have been far better to seek to give some facts about the civil parish - ie it being on the River Kennet and at the foot of downland; its multiple church parishes; its road network etc etc - than what is being said now. I am not local so would be loth to do it, but I am sure it isn't beyong the wit of someone who is to do much better than this! Peter Shearan 13:45, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
