Shoreton or Shoretown? I asked Ordnance Survey as all scales apart from 1:25000 currently label it as Shoreton, as do the Royal Mail, yet on all the old maps I could find it is Shoretown.
Their response: I would say that the definitive spelling is Shoreton as determined by Royal Mail, local Authority addressing and current Ordnance Survey mapping. It would seem that overtime the historical spelling of Shoretown has changed to Shoreton, though this may not be on the published 1:25 000 Scale Explorer mapping as we are waiting for more changes to happen across the 'map sheet' before doing the update of this scale.
