I meant that its a bit too big and got too much commercial business to really be seen as a village.
All the villages i've been in seem to be very close tightknit communities with basic public buildings such as a church, a school, a few small shops for newpapers and basic groceries etc, and a town hall.
Oswaldtwistle is a bit more developed than that now, and so more suitably labelled as a small town, though some might argue against that, just as some probably want to contend Preston being a city.
No need to be touchy about it and bring the topic of nazi's onto every single thread
