翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Leighton Buzzard ： ウィキペディア英語版 Leighton Buzzard Leighton Buzzard () is a town in Bedfordshire, England near the Chiltern Hills and lying between Luton and Milton Keynes. It adjoins Linslade and the name Leighton Linslade is sometimes used to refer to the combination of the two towns; parts of this article also apply to Linslade as well as Leedon. For local government purposes, the town is part of the Central Bedfordshire district and is administered jointly with Linslade as the civil parish of Leighton-Linslade.〔(Council Website: Council tax ) retrieved 7 August 2007〕 ==History== There are a number of theories concerning the derivation of the town's name, but the most likely is that "Leighton" came from Old English ''Lēah-tūn'', meaning 'farm in a clearing in the woods'. The "Buzzard" was added by the Dean of Lincoln, in whose diocese the town lay in the 12th century. Having two communities called "Leighton" and seeking some means of differentiating them, he added the name of his local Prebendary or representative to that of the town. At that time it was a Theobald de Busar and so over the years the town became known as Leighton Buzzard. The other Leighton became Leighton Bromswold.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Our Building - All Saints Leighton Buzzard )〕 Leighton Buzzard is also famous as the Grand Union Canal was opened there. More recently, Leighton Buzzard station was the location for part of the film ''Robbery'', which is based on the so-called "Great Train Robbery" (1963), whereas the actual robbery took place just outside the town, at Bridego bridge, Ledburn. In the ''Domesday Book'', Leighton Buzzard and Linslade were both called Leestone. 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「Leighton Buzzard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
