Burwell is a small village and Civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eldc.gov.uk/committee/mgParishCouncilDetails.aspx?ID=252&LS=1 )〕 It is situated on the A16 road, and north from Spilsby. The village covers approximately 2200 acres (9 km²). ==History== Now a village, Burwell was a medieval market town.〔Cox, J. Charles (1916) ''Lincolnshire'' pp. 88 ,89; Methuen & Co. Ltd.〕 Cropmarks indicated the extent of the settlement. Burwell Priory, which once stood here, was a Benedictine monastery founded at some point before 1110 by Ansgot of Burwell. It was an alien priory belonging to Grande-Sauve Abbey〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lincstothepast.com/The-English-Possessions-of-the-Abbey-of-Sauve-Majeure---Burwell-Priory/901535.record?pt=S )〕 in Aquitaine. It was dissolved in 1427 and sold to the college of Tattershall,〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lincstothepast.com/Site-of-Benedictine-priory--Burwell/228995.record?pt=S )〕 along with its chapels at Authorpe, Carlton, Muckton, and Walmgate, and other lands around Burwell.〔 The manor house, Burwell Hall, was situated in Burwell Park, and was built in 1760 for Matthew Lister. It was demolished in 1958, and only the stables remain. The manor itself was previously held by Henry Percy, Duke of Northumberland; John, Duke of Bedford; Ralf, Lord Treasurer Cromwell; and Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk.〔 The parish church of Saint Michael, became redundant on 13 May 1981 and was taken over by the Redundant Churches Fund (now The Churches Conservation Trust) on 27 October 1982. It is Grade I listed. The village also had chapels of the Wesleyan Methodists and United Reformed churches, which merged in 1988 making the Wesleyan building redundant. The combined church has since closed. Burwell District Council School was built in 1825 as a National School. It closed in December 1941 with only eleven children on the roll. 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「Burwell, Lincolnshire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
