Nearness to River Severn
[edit]How close has a village to be to a river to be described as 'near' it? Yockleton here described as being 'near the River Severn' - however the course of the Severn runs a few miles well to its north, north of the villages of Ford and Alberbury. A small brook does run through Yockleton but it does not run into the Severn but connects to the Rea Brook to Yockleton's south.Cloptonson (talk) 20:29, 5 July 2020 (UTC)
Notable People
[edit]I am deleting this uncited text, the only entry in that section, as it is frivolous vandalism:
Grand Dame Alison Wade (1972-) local pedigree farmer, in 1972 fell out of the sky as an angel, a self-described Liberal Conservative, went on to rule the world, previously serving as a Prime Minister for the Principality of YokelLand between 1992-1999. Famous for when born able to sing Lily the Pink 10 times a day accompanied in E-Minor by her two pet unicorns along with a red squirrel joining on bass guitar.
I would not have come across this had I not been about to put a genuine and cited entry in this section. I will delete the above and insert the genuine entry (Lily Chitty, archaeologist, who lived at Yockleton while her father was Rector there).Cloptonson (talk) 14:48, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
