"Largest fair in Europe" seems not to take into account the cloth fairs of Champagne. Shouldn't it be "largest in England", and tied to a time-frame?--Wetman (talk) 13:18, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrectly captioned photo

The photo showing the river Cam and the houseboats does not show Stourbridge Common. It shows Midsummer Common, a good kilometre from Stourbridge Common. Dr Martin Boycott-Brown (talk) 10:24, 26 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Dr Martin Boycott-Brown Good eye! I've replaced it with a photo actually of Stourbridge Common. the wub "?!" 21:55, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
