A 'related article', Greatstone-on-Sea, is summarized as a,
Human settlement in England
Now, what other kinds of settlements do we expect to have on our planet? Elven? Would a tribe of chimps in the Congo constitute a Simian settlement in Africa ?
This descriptor is used for English towns as well in the 'related article' summaries.
Cheers

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
