[edit] Name

As you can see from the edit history, I was a bit too bold with this one! Combeinteignhead just looks so ugly! Web authors seenm to agree with Combeinteignhead getting 15600 Google hits and Combe-in-Teignhead getting 16800. But the OS gazeteer has the ugly alloneword version so I think we should go with that.

Mind you, I take the view that with English villages, the criterion for Wikipedia-ability should be civil parish, so this should really be a redirect to Haccombe with Combe (now why is that not called Haccombewithcombe?). -- RHaworth 16:56, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
