Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What do you know today, that you did not yesterday?

"Collop" is an old Irish unit of measure for an area of land. It is the area of land that is needed to graze one cow and so the quality of the land determines the size in terms of more common units of area like acres.

Bizarrely, Reepham in Norfolk has three churches on the same site. Reepham's church of St. Mary, St. Michael's of Whitwell and All Saints of Hackford which burned down in 1543 and now only a fragment of the tower wall remains in the churchyard. For whatever reasons, the three churches were built where their parish boundaries met.

That collop is interesting. I have always had collop as a description of some meat for dinner.
