Is there a source stating that the pronunciation is /ˈboʊnɪs ɒn ˈwɪndərmɪər/? I've never heard anyone say Bowness this way. /ˈboʊnɪs/ should really be /ˈboʊnɛs/ so that the 'ness' in Bowness rhymes with dress/mess/less and not 'niss'. --▲RedScrees (talk) 23:28, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced so I've removed it now --▲RedScrees (talk) 20:39, 12 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
