References

User:Sugworth referencing can be tricky especially to an inexperienced editor. Your addition of the Phillips book as a reference does not appear to have been done in due form. I think the page number and edition should be given. User:Tony Holkham, if he has the time, may be able to help you better than me. He has experience in editing articles on settlements in the area.

User:Sugworth User:SovalValtos I have downloaded a pdf of this book and will tidy up the ref later. The book may be useful for other villages - it's a new one on me. Thanks, Tony Holkham (Talk) 15:57, 19 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:SovalValtos User:Tony Holkham, many thanks for your help here. I am an infrequent editor, although what I am learning is to get all the information together prior to starting rather than starting and then going off to find references etc! Sugworth (talk) 07:41, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sugworth You are welcome; every Wikipedia article is a collaboration. Best wishes, Tony Holkham (Talk) 08:36, 20 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bridge Submerged

'Unusually, in December 2015, floodwaters covered the bridge entirely.' I used to live in Llechryd as a child, until the mid 1960s, when I left home for university. Throughout the period I lived there, the village bridge routinely disappeared under the waves each November, leaving just a ripple on the surface of the river. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.238.4.160 (talk) 07:30, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I used to monitor the river for the South West Wales River Authority in the 1970s and in many years there would be periods, usually in winter, when the bridge was totally submerged. However, for Wikipedia, my recollections count for nothing and only reputable sources are of value. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 16:25, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
