[edit] Watermead Village

Since when was Watermead a village? It's a housing estate as far as I was concerned! Or a 'development' at least. I didn't think it was a village though. KingDaveRa 18:27, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Trust me there's a very heated argument on here on just that subject. Officially though Fairford Leys and Watermead are both outside the ancient parish boundaries of Aylesbury and therefore have their own parish councils. The rest of Aylesbury comes under the guise of Aylesbury Town Council. The parish councils of the two newer estates (and eventually the Weedon Hill development) have the right therefore to self-define how they want, and both self-define as villages. I'm with you on the housing estate thing though. -- Roleplayer 19:42, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
