Village name: both Sea Palling and Palling? edit

The article refers to both "Sea Palling" and "Palling". There doesn't seem to be a pattern to this (e.g. historical). Could someone who knows the area and its history review the names, please? For instance if it was historically one name, but now uses the other, then could that development be clarified? Feline Hymnic (talk) 16:46, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Feline Hymnic: Yes the village and parish were just "Palling", on 2 October 1948 the parish was renamed from "Palling" to "Sea Palling". Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:34, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. Do you have sources? Could you adjust the article? Or point me to citable, online sources showing the names at different times (and ideally changes of the name) so that I can try to clarify it? Feline Hymnic (talk) 20:41, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Feline Hymnic: The 2 sources I have linked above (map and UKBMD) show what I have said. VOB has a 2nd entry for "Sea Palling" saying it was formed in 1948 and the other was abolished as opposed to a rename but it seems like the same place anyway with different names.

Thanks. I've just incorporated that into the text, citing the UKBMD source. Feline Hymnic (talk) 15:13, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
