Talk:Tring

message: It seems unlikely that the old livestock market at Tring is still worthy of mention, as the area that contained the original working shambles has now been covered in tarmac.

message: I came here hoping to find the derivation of the name Tring. Anyone able to add something about it?

replies: text: i'm no expert on this but the meaning of the name Tring or rather Tredunga / Treunga, which are the first spellings to be found in the Domesday Book is not obvious but in 1265 a later spelt more usefully provides an answer OE 'trẽo-hangra'  which can be vocalised as 'Trehanger'  and as it suggests means 'a slope on where trees grow'. Btw there is another line of thought which does not have much support I should add that the name relates to 'triangle' presumably due to the tongue of land surrounded on three sides by manors in Buckinghamshire.Tmol42 (talk) 20:14, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Meaning

message: Although the Naturopathy page, to which I have linked, has set off considerable controversy, the existence of an activity called Nature Cure (as the kind of naturopathy the present General Council and Register of Naturopaths consider mainstream) was a reality, and it had many hundreds, perhaps thousands, of enthusiasts. The page titled Nature Cure is almost empty and seems redundant. I left the fate of Champneys unmentioned because of its present commercial status. Michael P.

replies: text: Hi Michael, I agree the Champneys article is not up to an encyclopaedic standard, however it would be the right place to set out the story of how Stanley Lief's converted it and used it as a natural health clinic, an essential part of its history connecting it to its present purpose as a spa in fact. It would contribute to improving the article. In any case, although the postal town of Champneys is Tring, the house and estate are some distance from the town, Champneys is on the edge of the village of Wigginton. I may be wrong but I assume Lief had no specific connection with Tring so mentioning Lief in the Tring article is out of place. Tmol42 (talk) 20:31, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
