I will allow its true, but surely Vic Reeves cannot be so important as to warrant a heading a big as the whole of BM history!!!! [Think: this is being read world-wide] Peter Shearan 07:40, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

Citations needed
I don’t know how to add a citation but have found a link to a newspaper article in connection with a claim under “Trivia” that ragstone quarried here was used in the construction of Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament. Indeed, it looks like the village was first founded here because of the local ragstone, and that to me is significant enough to put this more prominently rather than in a section called Trivia.

Under “Local Amenities”, the fact that Graham Clarke is a resident has been tagged. I can confirm that this is true. I lived in the village for over 20 years, I was at school with his son, have the son on social media and saw him a month ago. However I looked online and found the artist’s own website:
