Driveway surfacing materials like concrete, asphalt and clay brick usually crack because they’ve been exposed to extreme temperatures or put under high pressure. It’s important to repair driveway cracks before they get worse and cause damage to vehicles and perhaps others to trip on raised cracks.
Welwyn
Welwyn (population 8,425) is a town and civil parish in Hertfordshire, England. The parish also consists of the villages of Digswell as well as Oaklands. It is often called Old Welwyn to identify it from the much more recent negotiation of Welwyn Garden City, concerning a mile to the south, though some locals do not like the pointer of inability or irrelevance that often tends to be indicated by the name "Old" as well as like Welwyn Town. When saying where they live, citizens will commonly be asked, 'Welwyn or Welwyn Garden City?', as the latter's title is commonly reduced to just Welwyn. To prevent complication, there were plans to change Welwyn's name to 'Welwyn Minster' in 1990 yet this consulted with local resistance and the idea was deserted. The name is stemmed from Old English welig definition "willow", referring to the trees that snuggle on the financial institutions of the River Mimram as it flows with the town. The name itself is an advancement from weligun, the dative type of the word, therefore is much more precisely equated as "at the willows", unlike close-by Willian which is likely to indicate simply "the willows". Through having its name derived from welig as opposed to sealh (the much more frequently mentioned Old English word for willow), Welwyn is potentially cognate with Heligan in Cornwall whose name is derived from helygen, the Cornish word for willow that shares an origin with welig. The close-by modern town of Digswell (around Welwyn North railway station) was originally called 'High Welwyn' when initial established at the beginning of the 20th century.
