Sharron - I can't find it either and have looked for some other towns in that area, they are absent too! Perhaps 'they' haven't processed it yet...

I hope 'Adge' loikes his zoidurrr :-D.

There are local 'jokes' about Radstock, but I wouldn't insult your intelligence!

Is there anybody from Somerset who can tell me please why I can't find Radstock or even it'd hundred of Kilmerston in the Victoria County Histories for Somerset?

It turns out that OH,henceforth known as Adge, and who has a father is a proud Yorkshireman, is part of a family that comes from Somerset.
