WikiProject Dorset article assessment

I decided to change the assessment of this article from a 'Start' class to a 'Stub', at least for the time being - I think there's just too few words of text at the moment to justify a 'Start' assessment. PaleCloudedWhite (talk) 21:21, 8 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Compton Abbas and West Compton

On the OS boundary maps for 1900 and 1935-44, both of these parishes (24 miles apart) are labelled "Compton Abbas". After an hour of checking various sources I have discovered that the current Compton Abbas is not far south of Shaftesbury and adjacent to Melbury Abbas, while the presetnt West Compton is southwest of Dorchester and adjacent to Compton Valence. None of the sources mention this in their descriptions. Perhaps you could draw less inquisitive Wikipedia users to this fact.--Oldontarian (talk) 14:51, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
