Talk:De Beauvoir Town
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Added pic of the square, but removed link to a separate page for the square alone. It hasn't even got a stub, and I don't know that it even needs a separate entry when this page hasn't even been filled out yet. Same with Kingsland Basin - I would suggest here that we have a stub just for 'Kingsland, London'. With the growth along the city corridor, a lot of people refer Kingsland as an area - this page could include Kingsland Basin. Tarquin Binary 21:00, 4 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] DEE BEAVER?
COME ON IS THIS A JOKE?! ITS FRENCH, "DAY BOO-VWAH", OR AS NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS WHO LIVE THERE CALL IT, "DEY BOO-VWAR"
[edit] Pronunciation
As the area was originally developed in the 19th Century for the Upper/Middle classes I would have thought they would have used the French pronunciation (bō-vwär' / Bow-vwar). How do Hackney Council pronounce it? Randomdaftname 22:07, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
