Talk:Pegswood

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pegswood is a small ex-mining community two miles from Morpeth. It has a population of around 3000 and new houses are being built every other day. It has two social clubs and 5 shops. There is a large green hill known as the pit heap next to a small industrial estate. Crime is low and the people are the salt of the earth. At present a bypass is being built around the village (linking Morpeth and Ashington). This will both cut down on the volume of traffic and improve the quality of life for residents.

[edit] Demonym

This article says that the demonym for people from Pegswood is "Pegswoodians". However, the article on demonyms lists Pegwardian as the demonym for Pegswood, using it as an example of an irregular demonym. "Another example is the name of the natives of Pegswood in Northumberland, England, which is 'Pegswardian'" So, which one is correct? Pegster 19:26, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
