Wikipedia description:

Keele is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire, England. It is approximately 3 miles (4.8 km) west of Newcastle-under-Lyme and is close to the village of Silverdale. It is best known as the location of Keele University. The village is located in the Keele ward of the borough, with its name drawing from the old Anglo-Saxon Cȳ-hyll, meaning "Cow-hill". The 2001 census gave the parish a population of 3,664, increasing to 4,129 at the 2011 census. Most of the population were university students at one of its halls of residence, Hawthorns, which has since been sold for land redevelopment; it was located in the heart of the village.
