[edit] Rewrite
Ok, I have just completed a fair rewrite, with sources. Now, I plan on taking some photos when I find the time. J Milburn 21:27, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
Thanks, never had the time to look up all the sources ! Think the merger source might not exist because the length of time over which it took place probably made it unnoteworthy Kijog 21:29, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
Right then, I think that should be removed then. I am gonna head out, armed with a camera, later today, and get some pictures, so showing the 'Welcome to Askam and Ireleth' sign may give a good enough idea of the fact that they are merged. I intend to take the following pictures- two churches, two schools, two road signs ('Welcome to Askam and Ireleth'/'Welcome to Ireleth') panoramic views of the village, the station, the pier, the slag banks, the jubilee fountain, and the brick works. However, if I can't find a bike with tires, I may have to shorten that list slightly. Anything else that would make a good picture? I have lived here all my life, but I don't actually know where the Life Boat station is...J Milburn 13:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
The inshore rescue station is on the 'harbour' to the northern side of the slag pier, end of Sharp/Steel Streets. Kijog 15:12, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Great Britain map
Can anyone use this? It would be nice if we could get one of them onto the article. J Milburn 13:27, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
have done, and went the whole hog with an infobox Kijog 15:14, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
Haha! Brilliant! When I have got hold of some bleeding images (Will have to wait for a non-rainy day...) This will be a great article! J Milburn 15:40, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Catholic Church
The information about there being a Catholic church in the village was removed, despite being sourced, and I have since realised that there is no Catholic church, but that the site I used as a source failed to mention the C of E church. I have contacted the site about the matter. J Milburn 15:53, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Transport
Transport section is excellent, but we are gonna need some sources for it. J Milburn 18:01, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] 'Location of villages'
As far as I can see, the box that has been added is a few degrees off, in terms of which direction is North. A map source would be nice, as it appears to me that this disagrees with what is said. Or, at least, it is if 'Up=North', as I have always thought it does.J Milburn 19:09, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
