Caldecote is a village in Warwickshire, England, 2 miles north of Nuneaton and south of the A5. Caldecote is an ancient settlement: it is recorded in the 1086 Domesday Book as being in the ownership of the Bishop of Chester. The manor house, Caldecote Hall, was the home of Parliamentarian Colonel William Purefoy during the English Civil War and was severely damaged by Royalist siege by Prince Rupert and Prince Maurice in 1642. The Hall was rebuilt in 1880 for Henry Leigh Townshend, who was High Sheriff of Warwickshire in 1901. In 1924, the Hall was bought by the Church of England Temperance Society, for use as a retreat. In the 1950s, it was the home of St Chad's School but suffered financial problems and a severe fire in 1955. In 2005 it was restored and converted to private flats. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.countrylife.co.uk/culture/article/66929/Economies-of-Scale.html )〕 File:Nuneaton caldecote.jpg|River Anker File:Nuneaton caldecotehall.jpg|Caldecote Hall ==Further reading== Sheasby, Alan (1990) ''Skylark Fields: A Forties Childhood'' Exeter, Devon: Wheaton Publishers Ltd/Warwickshire Books, ISBN 1-871942-04-7 (Includes a map of Caldecote and surrounding district) 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「Caldecote, Warwickshire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
