Untitled[edit]

I think this article should really be at Westminster Abbey (UK Parliament constituency). It was almost always referred to as such. Fys. Ta fys aym. 15:55, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Silk Stocking"[edit]

In the article on Sir Sidney Herbert, 1st Baronet, Westminster Abbey is referred to as one of London's "silk stocking" constituencies, but I have been unable to find out exactly what this means. Can anyone enlighten me please? PhilUK (talk) 20:41, 9 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
