Talk:Steep Holm

Untitled
For some reason, the map shown here displays with a black background on IE. Morwen 13:31, May 21, 2004 (UTC)


 * Weird. I thought IE had fixed its problems with transparent PNGs. I'll do it again and make the background white, then. Marnanel 15:29, May 21, 2004 (UTC)

Infobox change
Changed from Infobox mountain to Infobox Islands as it is more appropriate.

Removed these parameters that didn't fit the new template:


 * Prominence = 78 m
 * Topographic map = OS Landranger 182
 * Grid_ref_UK = ST229607

North Somerset not Bristol
I just reverted a change made earlier today which had put Steepholm in Bristol. This is incorrect. The proof can be seen on the Government's MAGIC mapping system here, but you will zoom into the island (scale 1:5000). It shows the Bristol City Council boundary touching the north shore of the island but not actually encompassing any of it. Furthermore the text label next to the island indicates that it is part of the Weston-super-Mare parish of North Somerset. If further proof were needed, then numerous references can be found on the North Somerset Council website to the island e.g. in the local plan. --Simple Boba.k.a.
