[edit] Wapentake
Wasn't Richmondshire a wapentake? I'm sure I read that somewhere on Wikipedia but can't find any mention in this article. 194.203.110.127 15:19, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Richmondshire was a liberty made up of five wapentakes: Hallikeld, Gilling East, Gilling West, Hang East, and Hang West. Owain (talk) 15:34, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Village/Town Descriptions
This article concerns the local government district of Richmondshire. It is probably more appropriate to put much of the detail on the areas within the district within their specific articles. Paulleake 23:36, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
That is an historical overview of the district, focused on three sections and each had been known by a different name in their time. Richmondshire used to be known as Gilling, as it was also Catterick that was central to the district in previous time. IP Address 05:22, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
- I've deleted all this information. It was extraneous to this article, which is about the local government district. If it's appropriate for inclusion in Wikipedia it should be in the articles about the places, not this one. Cheers, DWaterson 22:27, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
