Talk:London Apprentice

message: Does anyone know the story of the unusual name of this hamlet? Richerman (talk) 12:46, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Having grown up in St Austell I have often wondered - and now have just found this  which is at least a start. DuncanHill (talk) 12:51, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks Duncan. I didn't really follow the first answer too well as it talks about apprentices but gives no reason why it should be London. The second one sounds feasible though. I was trying to put on the coordinates but couldn't work out exactly where it was on google earth. Any chance of you doing it as you're from the area? Richerman (talk) 15:07, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm a bit rubbish with the coordinates templates! I'll see if I can get a grid ref if that helps. DuncanHill (talk) 15:10, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's in grid square SX0050. DuncanHill (talk) 15:15, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: And here is a link to Google Maps for it   —Preceding unsigned comment added by DuncanHill (talk • contribs) 15:21, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, thanks for that. The way I do it is to use google earth, hover over the right area and read off the coordinates at the bottom. Then there is one template that relates to those that I use and just copy the numbers in. It took me ages to work out how to do it but I eventually found one template that I could use. I should be able to find it now so when I've done it, if you have a look at the template it should be a bit clearer, hopefully. Richerman (talk) 15:36, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Right, sorted. Good bit of teamwork there, thanks for your help. When I finally got there it was named on GE anyway - doh! Richerman (talk) 15:45, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I see someone has added a section to say that the place was named after the inn but no evidence ahs been provided. From the links given above there is is obviously evidence elsewhere that says differently, although I don't have access to it, so I think that the section about it being named after an inn should be deleted.

thread_title:  Origin of Name 

message: Where it says "in the historical parish of St Austell" should that be "historically in the parish of St Austell", or have I misunderstood the meaning of the sentence? Richerman (talk) 10:54, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ummm- good question! London Apprentice is (I think) in the unparished area of St Austell, and would have been (probably still is) in the ecclesiastical parish of St Austell. I'll do some digging to see what I can find. DuncanHill (talk) 11:09, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks Duncan Richerman (talk) 11:12, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, according to the Cornwall interactive mapping service () London Apprentice is in the St Austell unparished area, and from what I can make out at the Diocese of Truro website it's in the St Austell ecclesiastical parish - haven't worked out a way to cite these yet.

replies: text: Are the templates at Template:Cite web any use? Richerman (talk) 11:48, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The thing is, there is no way to link to the map output on the Cornwall interactive mapping service. For the ecclesiastical parish, I didn't find any specific reference - my result would be classed as synthesis for WP purposes. DuncanHill (talk) 11:54, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

replies: text:  Ah, I see your problem now, it goes there but doesn't display the map Richerman (talk) 12:05, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Could you link it to the main website with some instructions on what to click on from there? Richerman (talk) 12:14, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Historical Parish? 

message: Can someone please enlighten me as to why this article is written entirely in the past tense? Does London Apprentice no longer exist? Was a small nuclear bomb dropped on it (but the BBC didn't report it)? 92.237.136.80 (talk) 23:40, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I've changed the text to what I think it meant - however I'm not sure if the inn is still there (it probably is) and whether there are any mines at all that are still operational (probably not). I would have thought some of the residents worked in the china clay industry too, and I think there is still some activity there, but I wouldn't know whether any of them  work there - that's the problem with unreferenced articles. And I think this answer is now probably longer than the article itself :) Richerman (talk) 01:28, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
