The article is probably a hoax. It has no sources, it can't be found on a map, and Google brings no results for a village of this name in Dorset (which is surprising considering it's supposedly "famous for its high murder rate"). Barret (talk) 17:53, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete There is absolutely no evidence that such a place exists. Mahahahaneapneap (talk) 18:17, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - there are places called Hollyhurst, but none of them are in Dorset. 19:00, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
• Convert to a dab page for Hollyhurst, Shropshire; Hollyhurst, Warwickshire (both bluelinked to List of United Kingdom locations: Ho-Hoo#Hol); Hollyhurst, West Virginia in Kanawha County, West Virginia; and Hollyhurst, the 1989 winner of the Gran Premio Lotteria.

• Delete or convert to a dab page as per Clarityfiend. Can't be found in books, maps or on the web. Authors have been given an opportunity to give more information but to date have failed to do so.--Ykraps (talk) 23:11, 25 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete can't find any sources that verify the existence of a village called Hollyhurst in Devon. One author claims that it is the "other name" (I'm skeptical of this as I've never heard of a village having two completely different names as it is) of Churchill, North Devon but I haven't found any sources about this either.
