Move[edit]

I've moved this back to the last and highest status the district had before it was abolished, as that is what has been done with the other historic districts. MRSC • Talk 07:22, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Split?[edit]

The article is confusing in that most of it deals with the township/civil parish of Turton, but some of it deals with the urban district which existed from 1894 to 1974, and covered a much larger area. Would it be better to split the article into two, one on the township and one on the UD?--Mhockey (talk) 21:54, 7 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Now done.--Mhockey (talk) 22:52, 13 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
