[edit] Requested move
The usual name for this hill locally is 'Uley Bury', and not the elided form 'Uleybury'. It is not only its colloquial form that uses the two word version: all public documents- OS maps, the register of Scheduled Ancient Monuments, sundry geological/archaeological/environmental publications, etc. refer to 'Uley Bury'.
The only regular use of the name 'Uleybury' nowadays is in connection with the place of that name in Australia.
This article should therefore be reindexed as 'Uley Bury', with some reference to the occasional/ archaic use of the elided form.

- Perhaps I was too quick in merging to this title. I based my decision off a Google search, which is only so helpful.
- But I didn't check too closely to make sure the high results weren't referring to something else (an Australian place, apparently). It'll have to be listed at Wikipedia:Requested moves, because the destination has history and we can't overwrite that. NickelShoe (Talk) 14:18, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
