Cold Knap is a district of Barry in South Wales. == Amenities == Cold Knap is a coastal pebble beach, approximately a mile west of the sandy beach at Barry Island, which attracts visitors during the summer months. It was founded by the Romans who used it as a port. Attractions include a lake shaped like a Welsh harp and a skate park. There was previously an outdoor swimming pool, but this has now been closed and filled in, and the area turned into a tourist trail. There was a campaign to have the lido rebuilt during 2014 but an enthusiastic online campaign (including a Facebook campaign group ("Rebuild the Knap Lido")) has not been successful, despite a number of celebrity endorsements (including local BBC weatherman Derek Brockway).〔http://www.barryanddistrictnews.co.uk/news/11392539.print/〕 Cold Knap Lake is the title and subject of a poem by Gillian Clarke, which has been included in an English literature GCSE syllabus in England. It was also the location of a case in English contract law - ''Chapelton v. Barry UDC'' () 1 KB 532 - where a man's deckchair collapsed. 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「Cold Knap」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
