Yes, so how old is your village/town/city where you live?

You can find it pretty easily on Wikipedia as to when it was founded.



My city, Liverpool, was founded in 1207 making it 812 years old which is actually quite young for a British city.


How about you?

This is an interesting question. Mine isn't mentioned in the Domesday Book but is believed to be of Saxon origin. It's first mentioned shortly before the Norman Conquest.. around the reign of Aethelred the Unready.

Not too sure, but there's reference from the year 947 so maybe then.
