Presumably him referring to Blackwell made you Crosse.

Although I've not been there, there is the Devon Railway Centre at Blickleigh.

Thanks, johnneyw, but it's actually in Bickleigh.  Coincidentally, I have been there - some time ago. 

Your typo, however, caused me no undue concern - compared with the outrage I felt when Michael Portillo (with all of his researchers as a backup team) still referred to my local station as Nailsea & Blackwell, when he visited us.

Chris from Backwell (our local station is actually just within the parish of Backwell).

Thanks, ChrisB.

"Brecon Moutain" could also do with being corrected.

However, when I looked at most of the formatting in that post, such that many of those links don't work, even I decided to take a step back from that one.

Sorry, grahame.
