Jack Straw's Lane is a residential road in Oxford, England. It runs between the north end of Pullens Lane on Headington Hill and Marston Road. ==History== The land east of the Marston Road was part of Headington until the 20th century and was thus in the parish of St Andrew's Church.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jack Straw's Lane )〕 Under the Headington Enclosure Award of 1804–5, the Lord of the Manor of Headington acquired a plot that included the whole of Jack Straw's Lane. Jack Straw's Farmhouse, also known as Jack Straw's Castle, lay to the north of the lane, along with a brickworks between the farmhouse and the Marston Road. Until the 20th century, the lane had no name. It was originally a track at the end of Pullens Lane that led to the farmhouse. The name of the road dates from at least 1932 and the road was official adopted in 1954.〔 In 1898, Cowley House (now a children's nursery) together with Cowley Cottage were built on the south side of the lane. Subsequently, other large houses were built on the lane, with a rural feel but close to central Oxford. 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「Jack Straw's Lane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
