Questions[edit]

Good point. I created this article originally, with Tidworth defined specifically as a 'garrison town' (since reduced to just 'town'). Is there another level of settlement size/status between town and village? There must be many places referred to as 'towns' but which do not have a charter of incorporation, the criterion for inclusion on the list of towns page. -- T1mmyb 15:35, 7 Aug 2006 (UTC)
  • I can't help feeling part of this article is strongly worded. Maybe this could be toned down? Any Tidworthian Wikipedians out there? Mallanox 01:43, 17 May 2006 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Strongly worded? Talk about an understatement. Consider it nuked from orbit until someone can provide a verifiable source and then present it in a neutrally and encyclopedic tone. 08:25, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

Tidworth is actually a small town, split into two parts, North and South (althought the only things in the South are Tedworth House, Polo pitvhes and a few houses.)Garner14 (talk) 20:45, 23 August 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Tedworth House...in Tidworth?[edit]

So is the famous Tedworth House in Tidworth? --208.65.188.23 (talk) 03:04, 9 December 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes, Tedworth house is in Tidworth, next to the polo pitches. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Garner14 (talkcontribs) 19:07, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Is that the same house that figures in the story of the Drummer of Tedworth? --RThompson82 (talk) 02:35, 1 June 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Seems unlikely. The Drummer article says "John Mompesson, owner of a house in the town of Tedworth" but the Tedworth House article has no-one of that name.Wire723 (talk) 08:06, 1 June 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]
