You need to be logged into your JCD account to edit that post.There should be an 'Edit' option above that post when your signed into the JCD account. You can remove certain words, but you'll not be able to delete the whole thing. Hope that helps. Edit.. D.S.C.O beat me to it

JD - I've just worked out how to change usernames on existing user accounts. It's only taken seven years...Anyway, if you would like to keep your old user account but have a new name on it just let me know and I'll sort that out for you.

Re: The Peacock Pit
The Peacock Pit was indeed just the north side of Islington.somme1916 wrote:Jon Howe wrote: On a similar theme, I know there was a 'Peacock Pit' somewhere around where the New Peacock pub stood, ie. in the area that was known as Islington. This pit will have been gone by the late 1880s I am guessing. I have seen it on an ordnance survey map somewhere, but I can't find it now. Anybody have any maps with this on it?I have a theory that it was maybe the pit's name that was taken also for the two pubs, which both appeared in the 1840s, as I am fairly sure the pit will have been there first.
The land was taken by the WortleY Fired Clay company who may well have kept the pit open to mine fireclay.
