Itton
Itton ((ウェールズ語:Llanddinol)), is a small village in Monmouthshire, south-east Wales, about north-west of Chepstow. The village covers about a radius, with about 70 properties across a rural area. The parish also includes the hamlet of Howick.
The church and Itton Court, the manor house, are located about from the main housing development at Itton Common on the B4293 road between Chepstow and Devauden. The woodland between Itton and Devauden is Chepstow Park Wood.
==History==
The Welsh language name for the village derives from the dedication of the parish church to St. Deiniol, a 6th-century bishop. The English name first appears in records in the 13th century, as ''Edyton'', ''Hedyngton'' or ''Edeton''.〔Sir Joseph Bradney, ''A History of Monmouthshire, vol.4 part 2'', 1932〕
The parish church building itself dates in part from the 14th century although it was mostly rebuilt in 1869. The church stands beside Itton Court, originally a mediaeval fortalice of the Lords of Striguil or Chepstow.〔(Geograph photo of Itton Court )〕 The fortified manor house was later extended. The eastern front was built for the house's owner, John Jeffries, in the early 18th century. In 1749 the house was bought by John Curre whose family extended it and rebuilt parts, particularly in the late 19th century.〔
