Talk:Lydney

Minor Edits
I've finally found a reference for the Twonkers section.

The Model Village is now open again (as a separate company from the former business).

I've changed the Town Band link to that of the current "Training Band".

After watching a Discovery Channel programme regarding The Lydney Murder, I've expanded that section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tycobbuk (talk • contribs) 11:15, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

I've amended my original text regarding Lydney RFC to acknowledge that another club now has equal standing in the area. The Model Village is currently closed

I've removed the "little or no success" comment from the Rugby section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.146.95.40 (talk) 12:04, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

The claim of the Beatles performing at the Town Hall on the 31st August 1962 may be incorrect. I have checked the Wikipedia "Beatles live performances" article which doesnt seem to list Lydney as a venue. At the time of the alleged performance the Beatles are shown as being in Bradford. This needs clarification.

The Lydney Murder, 1964
This sub-section, about a murder which appears not to have occurred in Lydney, is very weakly sourced. The 1st is to a crap TV channel, the 2nd appears not to work, and the 3rd looks like a blog. Are there any decent RS for this, and does it warrant its own section? KJP1 (talk) 10:58, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Without checking all the details, I think the murder did in fact take place in Lydney, and there are sufficient good sources for it to be mentioned - but, more briefly and less prominently than in the current text. It seems odd that (so far as I can see) the case is not mentioned in our article on forensic entomology.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:58, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
