It's 'Lords Hill' and not 'Lordshill'

Thank you Mike for bringing to my attention the correct spelling of our local parish, and producing supporting evidence.    Although commonly referred to as 'Lordshill'   it is officially 'Lords Hill' (two words, not one), and as a historical society it seems appropriate we go with the right one.

'Lords Hill and Lords Wood' is the name of the parish covered by our Chairman, the Rev. Robert Sanday, so we fall in line with that with the designation of our Society. 

Given enough time I hope I may yet be able to work out how to change the name of this blog to the double barrelled 'Lords Hill' and 'Lords Wood', but I fear we are probably stuck with it as it is.
