Does a Hamlet have a school or a shop? It said on the lottery quiz it has no church. Is this true?

Yes, a hamlet is a village without a church, whether it has a school or a shop is irrelevant.





It is quite an old classification and I think that historically a Hamlet would be served by a nearby castle for its religious needs. At least that is the case of hamlets around Arundel Castle.





Hope this helps,

A hamlet has no services: no school, police, fire department, shops. The technical distinction, when it is made, is that a hamlet may not impose taxes so the services cannot be paid for.Does a Hamlet have a school or a shop? It said on the lottery quiz it has no church. Is this true?
No church, shops or schools. A village has a church. A town has more than one church and a city a cathedral I think.
