History

Limey

The origin of the name "Limey" is said to come from the Celtic word "lemos" meaning "elm [tree]". This particular tree was previously common in the area but has since disappeared.

The town has several memorials from the First World War.

gollark: It doesn't solve it completely. It introduces extra issues which you seem to be ignoring.
gollark: Well, an isolated channel instead of my idea of a switchable "flag" on this one would have the issues I've mentioned.
