[edit]

The exact pronunciation of Southwell remains a subject of debate. One view, that used by the BBC and other broadcasters, is that it should be pronounced Suth-ell, while others (mostly located in Southwell and the region) believe that it should be pronounced South-well.

I would disagree slightly on this, from my experience most people in the region pronounce Suth-ell. Though it is true that many of the residents pronounce South-well instead. I also believe that Southwell Minster is nationally know as Suth-ell Minster.

Please do not remove this link. Disambiguating links to this page, I have found plenty of historical articles using just "Southwell" to mean the Minster/diocese. Thank you. CarolGray 19:45, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
