Talk:Droitwich Spa

message: Are we sure Matt Neal lives in Droitwich? I thought he lived in Hanbury - a village near Droitwich but not part of Droitwich. Neal's profile on the BTCC website seems to confirm this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 80.168.127.196 (talk) 13:57, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Matt Neal's hometown 

message: According to the information / interpretation panels around the town, the subsidence of High Street only started after the opening of John Corbett's pumps at Stoke Prior. As the plant extracted so much brine, it out-competed the other salt companies in town, driving them out of business. Eventually, the Stoke Prior plant was made unprofitable itself due to the number of insurance claims from residents / companies in the town.
The town itself also appears to have adopted a Latin motto: Sal Sapit Omnia (Salt Flavours All)
I've added the above information here as a 'holding' page until I can find some online sources to confirm it.

thread_title:  Salt extraction and subsidence 

message: This sentence as it  stands is POV:Tagwell Road, Lyttleton Road and Corbett Avenue are regarded as the three best residential streets in Droitwich, and are lined with the town's most sought-after dwellings. I am suggesting  that  it  should be removed unless a source can be cited.The entire article may be in  need of a significant clean up, especially  the exhaustive list  of local  shops - please see the proposal for a Worcestershire project. --Kudpung (talk) 17:44, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Local area

message: A couple of recent  edits include the removal  of the list  of pubs, and comparatives or superlatives about  schools. Unless a Wikipedia article exists about them for some special  reason, schools that no  loner exist  are not of encyclopedic value. If they  have been merged or amalgamated with another school, that  fact could and should be mentioned.--Kudpung (talk) 05:51, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Starting to clean up 

message: This article is fast becoming a shopping guide for Droitwich - something we generally try to avoid in an encyclopedia,  the mentions of some non  notable commerces being possible spurious advertising. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:48, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
