:''For places with similar names see Ince in Cheshire, and Ince-in-Makerfield in Greater Manchester'' Ince Blundell is a village and civil parish in the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton in Merseyside, England but historically in Lancashire. It is situated to the north of Liverpool on the A565 road and to the east of the village of Hightown. There are two associated hamlets of Lady Green and Carr Houses. ==History== Ince Blundell is probably the oldest settlement within the borough of Sefton. The name Ince comes from ''Hinne'' a Celtic word meaning "island in the marsh".〔 This name bears evidence to Ince lying on a sandy ridge in the Alt valley, a place that in the past had been marshland. In the 14th century, John Blundell, whose family were the predominant landowners in the area, added his surname to Ince. This was to distinguish it from the Ince in Cheshire and Ince-in-Makerfield near Wigan. Built from 1720, Ince Blundell Hall was the home of the Blundells of Ince, who became the Weld-Blundells until 1959. The house is a Grade II * listed building, and is now a nursing home run by the Canonesses of Saint Augustine. 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「Ince Blundell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
