I'm glad I don't live in Notts.

[Zacs-Master]

West Yew Tree Estate. Now living in North Yew Tree Estate.

Not entirely sure how accurate the names are. Seems to be click bait for Quick Quid.

I hope, AOG, that you noticed the line:

The UK is known for having a rich and diverse history attracting Roman, Celtic and Anglo-Saxon settlers.

My one is really bland...

Yes and that is what turned us into the great civilised nation that we became.

[jourdain2]

Definitely in a Yew-tree Estate.

[Zacs-Master]

When was that AOG?

[Tilly2]

They forgot The Normans.

[Tilly2]

...and the Norsemen.

[nescio]

like Zacs, I was born in WYTE and now live in NYTE

[Baldric]

I came from a Hilly County to The Land on the Edge via the Territory of the Northern People of the East Angles.

Not sure about the validity off the names.Both Yorkshire and Lancashire end with shire yet one is shown as meaning estate and the other not.

[dannyk13]

Just checked a few more and there is no consistency in the translaztion of shire.

[Zacs-Master]

Nah, danny, looks like click-bait as I said.

I like Baldric's. Sounds like someone from Game of Thrones. LOL.

[emmie]

i live in the capital, so doesn't count i guess.
