It appears that the referenced section of this article was directly copied from A Topographical Dictionary of England, Samuel Lewis (editor) (1848), Seventh edition. Contains detailed topographical accounts of places, parishes and counties in England. Originally published in four volumes, here given together. The webside is British History Online. UK copyright actually can extend back to the 1800s Would someone be willing to re-write the section so that it is not using directly copied material and cite it correctly?
