''Corley'' (and the associated hamlets of Corley Ash and Corley Moor) is a village and civil parish in the North Warwickshire district of Warwickshire, England. It is located about northwest of Coventry and is adjacent to the village of Fillongley. The M6 motorway runs close by, and the village is familiar to motorists as it is the site of Corley Services. Other significant buildings in the area include Corley Hall, which was built in the 16th century. The parish church of St Mary dates from the 12th century and is a Grade II * listed building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= Name: CHURCH OF ST MARY List entry Number: 1299365 )〕 Corley is also home to Corley Cricket Club, which entered its 65th season in 2012. One of the club's most notable former players is James Ormond, who went on to represent England. The club has also seen many of its players compete at county level, including Race Williams and John Wilson, the latter representing Leicestershire young cricketers. Following a nationwide competition in 2012 Corley beat over 1500 other cricket clubs to be awarded the title of "Biggest Little Cricket Club" - The most loved and worthy in England and Wales. Club representatives have been invited to the National Outstanding Contribution to Cricket Awards ceremony at Lord's Cricket Ground on two separate occasions since 2011 following nominations from the Warwickshire Cricket Board. On July 14, 2013 Corley CC hosted the famous Lashings World XI, one the biggest game in the club's history. Richard Lamb took a particularly liking to the Lashing's attack, hitting a belligerent 57 from 61 deliveries. Paul Williams will be celebrating 12 years as both Club and first team Captain in 2015, an achievement of which he and the club are extremely proud. Corley CC are also blessed with a middle order known as the 'Holy Trinity', consisting of Richard 'Chuppa Chups' Lamb, Stuart 'Higjam' Higgins, and overseas player Derek 'Abdul' Radburn. Derek Radburn became the inaugural loser of the 'trinity challenge' when he scored the lowest amount of Saturday league runs in 2014. His forfeit was to pay for a boozy night out for the 'Holy Trinity'. == References == 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「Corley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
