:''See also Althorp, Northamptonshire.'' Althorpe is a small village in North Lincolnshire, England. It is situated west of Scunthorpe and south-east of Crowle on the A18 road. ==History== The ''Domesday Book'' records the lords of the manor in 1066 as Alnoth and Ulf Fenman. In 1086, the lord and Tenant-in-chief was Geoffrey of la Guerche. The settlement was small with one ploughland and six sokemen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Place: Althorpe )〕 A 1620s scheme by Vermuyden for drainage of the Isle of Axholme and Hatfield Chase had two phases: # The southern arm of the River Torne was blocked. The course of the other arm was straightened by cutting a drain, and its waters emptied through a sluice into the River Trent at Althorpe. # A second long drain was cut from Idlestop to Dirtness. This ran parallel to the River Torne and the water was sluiced into the River Trent at Althorpe. In the early 19th century an addition outfall – Folly Drain – was constructed at (Derrythorpe ). At a later stage these outfalls were replaced by a new outfall for 'the three rivers' at Keadby.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hatfield Chase Corporation, 1538-1973 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Althorpe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
