Old Lindley

I've started a draft behind the redirect for Old Lindley, if you have any other content you can add it. A reliable source for the alternative name "Over Lindley" would also be helpful as I can find unreliable ones but not reliable ones. Crouch, Swale (talk) 20:03, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article has now been created, thankyou for you're input. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:14, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Crouch, Swale I cannot find a ref for Over Lindley - next time I am at the library, I will research the Place names of Yorkshire and see what comes up. The joy of all things (talk) 10:17, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've added Malcolm Bull's Calderdale Companion which while it may not be the most reliable as it seems to somewhat be a blog like website it seems OK for the statement in question but yes if you can find another that would be helpful, thanks. Crouch, Swale (talk) 10:20, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Actually - I have managed to find the right book - "The place names of the West Riding of Yorkshire by A H Smith, which doesn't include a reference to Old, or Over Lindley. So it must be in the one covering the Morley Wapentake (which includes Halifax), as this Lindley is on the north side of what is now the M62.

Rivelin Dams - Was or were

I am about to revert your change to my contribution to Rivelin Dams. (→‎Rivelin tunnel: grammar) There were many towers in the series of sighting towers, but only one series of towers, not many. 109.148.86.205 (talk) 09:45, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
