Chiselborough is a village in the South Somerset district of Somerset, England. It is situated on the River Parrett, 5 miles (8 km) west of Yeovil, and has a population of 275. The village consists largely of small cottages built in the local golden hamstone quarried at the local Ham Hill. ==History== The village was recorded in Saxon times as ‘Ceoselbergon’ and was later mentioned in the Domesday Book as ‘Ceolseberge’ in the holding of Robert, Count of Mortain. The name derives from the Old English ''cisel'' and ''beorg'' (gravel and hill). The parish was part of the hundred of Houndsborough.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/SOM/Miscellaneous/ )〕 The Earls of Ilchester held most of the village until 1914 when the estates were sold off. The current Baron and Baroness of Chiselborough do not reside in the area. The annual Chiselborough Fair was held on common ground near the street now known as Fair Place. 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「Chiselborough」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
