    1. [DEV] GENUKI 12000 item gazetteer of Devon?
    2. Teresa Goatham via
    3. Devon GENUKI had this very useful: "A 12, 000-item online gazetteer of Devon <http://genuki.cs.ncl.ac.uk/DEV/Gazetteer/> has been produced from White's 1850 book, listing all the places (chapels, churches, farms, hamlets, houses, inns, manors, schools, streets, villages, etc.) and principal organizations named in it, and identifying their town or parish." I see this is available still from the old version - now labelled as 'archived' but not from the new version (or at least not from the same place). Is this to disappear? Or has it moved? Thanks, Teresa

Or has it moved? This gazetteer is still there, and still linked to from the Towns and Parishes page - though that is now reached from under the map rather than at the top of the Main Devon page. However I’ve now also added a link from under Gazetteers. I hope this will help.
