External Links edit
User:Gabbe said: "Don't like external links". This is interesting - I wasn't aware of this Wikipedia convention, but I guess it makes sense, especially given that the external links are present at the bottom of the article. I'll bear it in mind in future. Rayray 28 June 2005 10:59 (UTC)
Query: origin of name Pimlico edit
you can settle a longstanding question I have by finding out the origin of the name Pimlico
Copied from article
- Better late than never, but I've now added a section on the origins of the name "Pimlico". Hope you come back to read it one day, anonymous. Rayray 11:49, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

boundaries edit
Are Easton Square, Tate Britain and Chelsea College of Art really in Pimlico? Surely they're the wrong side of Buckingham Palace Road and Vauxhall Bridge Road? --87.82.12.159 14:08, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
Confusing passage edit
"Pimlico's most famous building is the Tate Britain on Millbank. Millbank is a ward independent of Pimlico. So the Tate is not on Millbank, it is in Millbank..." (my emphasis). It can't be both on Millbank and not on Millbank! 86.132.139.119 (talk) 18:03, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
connection of the name Pimlico to the Pimlico or Pamlico river in America edit
Is there a possibility that the name Pimlico is taken from the Pimlico or Pamlico River in the Eastern Seaboard of North America? 86.180.219.195 (talk) 11:45, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
Pimlico has English roots: "Soho...Bengeo (Herts)=Penge-ho, and again in Pimlico (Pen-lac-ho)." edit
Anent the word-roots of neighbouring Soho, it reads...
"First let me point out that ho (=height) is itself not unknown in the neighbourhood of London, since it occurs in Bengeo (Herts) = Penge-ho, and again in Pimlico (Pen-lac-ho)."
