Carperby-cum-Thoresby is a civil parish in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. The parish contains the village of Carperby and the hamlets of High and Low Thoresby. It is situated north of Aysgarth and the main village of Carperby is west of the County Town of Northallerton. ==History== The village of Carperby is mentioned in the ''Domesday Book'' as ''Chirprebi''. At the time of the Norman invasion the manor was the possession of ''Thor'' and afterwards granted to ''Enisant Musard'' by ''Count Alan of Brittany'' to whom it had been given by the Crown. Thereafter the lands became one of many feudal tenures that belonged to the constables of Richmond. The ''Lascelles'' family held the manor here during the 13th century, with the exception of a small area held by the ''Thoresby'' family after whom the hamlets in the parish are named. During the 14th century, the manor was tenured to the ''Wauton'' family of Masham and by 1421 had passed to the ''Scrope'' family of nearby Castle Bolton, whose descent it followed thereafter.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History )〕 In the centre of Carperby there is a high-stepped cross dated 1674 indicating that Carperby once had a market. The charter for the market was granted in 1305 for weekly markets and fairs on St James' Day in July and St Andrew's Day in November.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Carperby History )〕 The Wheatsheaf Hotel was where James Herriot and his bride spent their honeymoon in 1941. There was a Wesleyan Chapel erected here in 1826.〔 The Friends Meeting House was erected in 1864 and signifies the importance of Quakerism in Wensleydale at that time. Both are now private residences.〔〔 The village had a school for over 100 years until its closure in 1962.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Carpeby Village Info )〕 The topynomy of Carperby is derived from the Old Norse personal name of ''Cairpe'' combined with ''bi'' to give the meaning of ''Cairpe's farm''. The topynomy of Thoresby is derived from the Old Norse personal name of ''Thorir'' combined with ''bi'' to give the meaning of ''Thorir's farm''. 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「Carperby-cum-Thoresby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
