It remained in the Talbot family until the early seventeenth century. The ''Talbot Arms'' at Chipping commemorates the family's close association with the town.

In 1934, there was a murder in the village; when detectives investigated the shooting of Jim Dawson, they were met with a "wall of silence" from local residents, and the crime is still unsolved. 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「Bashall Eaves」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
