Talk:James Penny

Why the expression of doubt?

The lede states 'Penny Lane ... is thought to be named after him.' But the BBC article expresses no such doubt. Can we have a link to a view that at least disputes the naming of the street to this man , please ? Otherwise the expression of doubt should be removed. Hmcst1 (talk) 09:04, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Birthplace

Was there any connection with the village Penny Bridge near Ulverston? Local historians say so but I can find nothing documented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.187.224.234 (talk) 09:00, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
