Monksilver
Monksilver is a village west of the town of Williton in Somerset, England, on the eastern flank of the Brendon Hills and the border of the Exmoor National Park. The Coleridge Way footpath passes though the village. ==History== The name of the village means ''monk's wood''. In the Domesday Book it was simply ''Selvre'', from the Latin ''silva'' for a wood, although it has also been suggested that ''Sulfhere'', in AD 897, referred to the silvery stream below the village. In 1113 the manor was given by Robert de Chandos to endow Goldcliff Priory, which he had just established near Newport in Monmouthshire . In 1441 it passed, with the priory, to Tewkesbury Abbey and then in 1474 to the canons of Windsor.〔 In the 14th century the name changed to "Monksilver".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=117140 )〕 The parish of Monksilver was part of the Williton and Freemanners Hundred.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/SOM/Miscellaneous/ )〕 In the 16th and 17th centuries it was a centre for cloth making〔 and field names such as "Rack", at nearby Woodford, suggest this activity.〔
