The result was Speedied as a hoax article. In addition to the nom's points, I see that that User:Hyllsberg, who created this article nearly four years ago, has no other contributions, which is always a bad sign in the case of a suspected hoax. User:Durham-man-lol, who edited the article within three minutes of its creation, likewise has no other contributions and also has "lol" in his username. Verified that there are no non-mirror Google hits to this title or anything similar. Newyorkbrad ( talk) 23:10, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

The village appears to be a long-lived hoax. No references can be found to support the existence of this village or the supposed "cheese wheeling" practice that originated there. Of the "famous residents" listed, the first two generate no Google hits (aside from this article and mirrors) in conjunction with "High Fenton," while the other two are known to be from other locations.
