Horeston Grange is a suburban area of Nuneaton in Warwickshire in central England. It is a large housing estate, built mainly in the late 1980s and early 1990s (with an addition in the early 2000s). It is situated in eastern Nuneaton, approximately 1 mile from the town centre. Home nation: England Region: West Midlands Administrative county: Warwickshire Ceremonial county: Warwickshire Historic county: Warwickshire Local government district: Nuneaton & Bedworth borough District ward(s): St Nicolas County electoral division(s): St Nicolas Postal district(s): CV11 (sector 6) Boundaries: Hinckley Road (A47), Eastboro Way (A4254), Birmingham–Leicester railway line, and the East Nuneaton flood relief scheme (on the site of a dismantled railway). ==History== The area takes its name from a former manor house called Horeston Grange. Nearby Oaston Road is named after the same manor of Horeston/Oaston. Prior to the construction of the housing estate, the only features in the area were manorial earthworks. The current housing estate dates, for the most part, from the late 1980s and early 1990s. It was constructed in two sections; there is no vehicular access between the two, although there are a number of connecting pathways for pedestrians. The northern section (off Hinckley Road, based around Tiverton Drive and Tavistock Way) comprises 12 streets named after places in Devon. The southern section (off Eastboro Way, based around the horseshoe formed by Camborne Drive) comprises 24 streets named after places in Cornwall. Two of these streets (Portreath Drive and St Buryan Close) were built in the early 2000s as the "Peppermill Green" development. 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「Horeston Grange, Warwickshire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
