Ovingham
[edit]Hello, i am just suggesting that Ovingham should be mentioned in the description as the Whittle Dene is partly in Ovingham and if you want to improve this article i have a bit of knowledge on some of the history, for example the Whittle Dene Mill which is in the Ovingham end. Also the Cabins aren't mentioned in this even though they are a part of the Whittle Dene it's self also one more thing, you could include how the Locals (Residents of Ovingham) call it by which is just plainly 'The Dene'. I know a lot of people from Ovingham and they call it 'The Dene' and at first i did not realize what they meant. Glaramara12 (talk) 19:29, 17 June 2011 (UTC)User:Glaramara12 20:30, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
- No, I disagree. The article is about the water treatment works, known in Newcastle as 'Whittle Dene'. The actual 'Dene' is further downhill, and is a separate (geographical) feature. I am not convinced that the dene itself is notable enough to warrant and article, but if you feel strongly enough just create one, and join it into Category:Geography of Northumberland.

- Ah sorry, i did not understand this was about the Water Treatment, it was just because i was thinking as there is a sign in Ovingham saying "Whittle Dene 1/2" which obviously means "Whittle Dene half a mile away" and the water treatmeants are at leat 1 and a half miles north of Ovingham and the woods is actually called "Whittle Dene" because it's a Dene and the river/stream called Whittle runs through it, so i was just wondering if Ovingham should be included as part of the woods bit is in Ovingham but like you say that the forest part is called 'dene' here in Ovingham we do actually call it "the Dene" but it's real name is "Whittle Dene" because of the river/stream being called whittle and it running through the woods.. My mistake. Glaramara12 (talk) 18:24, 23 June 2011
