[edit] Merge Hampsthwaite with Hampthswaite

Hampsthwaite is the correct spelling : Hampthswaite is not and contains also inaccuracies regarding Hampsthwaite Feast

Suggest that Hampthswaite is removed and the reference to Hampsthwaite Feast is corrected to :

In 1304, Edward the 1st (ie 'Longshanks' or 'Hammer of the Scots') granted the Market Charter of Hampsthwaite to hold an annual market and fair on the Feast of St Thomas the Martyr - Hampsthwaite being one of the few churches in the UK to be named after St. Thomas a' Becket.

See : Hampsthwaite Village Web Site

The Trivia attached to Hampthswaite should be transferred to the new Hampsthwaite Feast 1304 (talk) 10:41, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
