Carden, Cheshire

edit

Thanks for the message, though it would have been better placed on the article's discussion page. I wonder if I can suggest how the problem has arisen: First, if one looks at the 1:25000 OS Survey maps, which have the boundaries of civil parishes marked in, then Carden is represented as a separate civil parish. This is also supported by the official website which OS Survey maintain that shows the various Westminster Parliamentary boundaries: if you go there, and search for Eddisbury County Constituency, then, when the map shows, choose the "layers" tab on the left hand box, and get it to show parish boundaries, Carden is also shown as a separate civil parish. That is why it is given on wikipedia as a separate civil parish. However, for small civil parishes, they can be grouped. This happens a lot in the Chester District where there are many small civil parishes. What grouping means is that, although the civil parishes that make up a group maintain their separate civil parish status, the parish council or parish meeting that would administer it administers also a number of other civil parishes in a group, with the separate civil parishes operating like parish wards. It may well be that this happens here, with the abutting civil parish of Tilston being the major player in the grouping, and Carden being placed in with it: the civil parishes remain distinct, but the authority that administers them is common between them. I have found it very difficult to get any information from Chester District about this, and so it is difficult to know what to say, and I put it to one side, but we may be able to resolve it if we write to the parish clerks for the various parish councils and ask about their area of administration and the status of what the OS Survey mark as separate civil parishes. If you have some definite and verifiable information in reliable sources that can resolve this specific issue for all to see and accept, that would be really good. In the meantime, I will make a slight adjustment to the article pending confirmation, and I will also try to contact the parish clerk to clear up the matter. I hope that is acceptable. Best wishes.  DDStretch  (talk) 10:43, 17 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

OK. I now have confirmation of the fact that Carden is still a civil parish. Its parish council, however, is a shared one, but not with Tilston, which you thought, but with a number of others of which Tilston does not figure. The parish council goes under the name of Coddington & District Parish Council. I've edited the article appropriately and included a reference which confirms these arrangements.

On another matter, you created an article entitled "Carden Hall, Carden, Cheshire", when there is already an article in existence for the same place called Lower Carden Hall. I've transferred the content you added to Talk:Lower Carden Hall, and then redirected Carden Hall, Carden, Cheshire to Lower Carden Hall. In fact, because there is no need to disambiguate so much, Carden Hall would have sufficed for the title of the article you created, and so that further change to the redirection has also been made. If you are able to integrate what you wrote into the article, then that would be really good.  DDStretch  (talk) 12:42, 17 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
