Civil parish

edit

I've added population data and when merged for the parishes project but I haven't used the normal "Burcombe is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Burcombe Without" as the parish of "Burcombe" was split meaning the former parish was larger so its not "now in the parish of Burcombe Without". The thing I'm wondering about is what's going on with "Burcombe Within". According to this article it says the addition to Wilton from Burcome Within was in 1895 but the source would suggest 1894 not 1885 as it doesn't mention anything more about boundary changes with Wilton until 1934. VOB says Burcome Within was formed and abolished in 1894 but unfortunately neither mentions where it went, what date it was formed and abolished nor has a map.
