Other people have objected to the name change but you've picked up on mine, as usual.

Given that Church occupies the geographic centre of Hynburn and is also the oldest recorded part of the borough, I personally think it should be renamed "Church, Districts and the Dosshole Ossy". That has a nice ring, don't you think?
Well as Church is clearly the centre of the universe, despite you living 300 miles south of it, I think you've got a point. Anyway, if people don't know where Hyndburn is surely that's not the fault of the people who live here - we know where we live - surely it's the fault of people who have gone to live elsewhere not spreading the word efficiently enough.
