Middlezoy is a village and civil parish on the River Parrett as it crosses the Somerset Levels in the Sedgemoor district of Somerset, England. ==History== The name Middlezoy meaning ''the middle stream island'', derives from ''Sowi'', the name of Glastonbury Abbey's major estate, ''sow'', a British river name from a root meaning ''flowing''. The extra i is derived from the Saxon ''ig'' for island. The parish of Middlezoy was part of the Whitley Hundred.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/SOM/Miscellaneous/ )〕 In 1800 1,100 acres of common land were enclosed as a result of the Inclosure Acts. In 2006 the village shop closed and a grant was obtained for the erection of a new modular structure to house a community shop and post office. 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「Middlezoy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
