Eaton Hastings : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eaton Hastings
Eaton Hastings is a village and civil parish beside the River Thames about northwest of Faringdon. It was part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred it to Oxfordshire. Eaton Hastings was formerly considerably larger than it is today, and is regarded as a deserted medieval village.〔(Berkshirehistory.com )〕 ==History== The original village developed around the parish church. Today all that remains are a few scattered dwellings and the church. The population started to decline after 1349, until by the 19th century it consisted only of a few scattered farmhouses.〔 The depopulation has been attributed to bubonic plague,〔(royal historical society bibliography )〕 emparking〔 and sheep farming.〔''The Badbury Parishes Trail'' by Ian Beckwith 2001〕 Late in the 19th century a group of houses was built on the Lechlade to Faringdon road, designed by the architect Ernest George for Alexander Henderson, 1st Baron Faringdon as part of a social improvement project. Many people now regard this as being Eaton Hastings,〔(National Trust )〕 but the remaining buildings of the original settlement are down a single lane road and not visible from the main road.
