premise: Wellingore is a village and civil parish in the North Kesteven district of Lincolnshire, England. The population of the civil parish at the 2011 census was 356. It is situated on the A607 road, approximately 12 mi south from Lincoln. It conjoins the village of Navenby to the north. The Viking Way traverses through the village, passing from the side of the cliff edge to Ermine Street.
hypothesis: A civil parish and village are the same thing.
reason: A civil parish is responsible for classifying itself. Regarding Wellingore, its parish classified itself as a village. In this way, it is just two different words to describe the same locality. A civil parish can also classify itself as a town or other types of communities. They aren't always villages. But if a civil parish IS a village, they are the same thing in that instance. They're just not the same thing always, nor are they not the same thing always.
