I presume you mean the village just east of Dursley. Most people use "You ly" that rhymes with "Julie", and if you were asking for directions people would know where you were looking for.

Pronunciation, please for Uley. Is it like the log, Yule ly or Ooh (la la) ly? Or even, like the public school, is the "ly" pronounced as in "lie" (down) rather than the meadow (lee/lea)? [ That would give us four possibilities with two for each syllable! ] Many thanks Phil ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BRISTOL_AND_DISTRICT-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message No virus found in this incoming message.
