So it's definitely not Wyke near Bradford?? (Remember there's a Bradford in - I think- Somerset) |

Are you sure it doesn't say Wike Birstall?? From Genuki (1868): 'WIKE, a township in the parish of Birstall, wapentake of Morley, West Riding county York, 3 miles S.W. of Bradford, of which it may be considered a suburb.' Merry |

Debbie - I know I lived there in my youth. Lynne - go for the Bradford Wyke - I bet if you enlarge the image it says Birstall not Bristol. Especially as N Bierley is Bradford too. UPDATE - just checked image - it's Birstall |
