Moreton in the Marsh : ウィキペディア英語版 | Moreton-in-Marsh
Moreton-in-Marsh is a town and civil parish in northeastern Gloucestershire, England.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cotswolds.info/places/moreton-in-marsh.shtml )〕 The town is at the crossroads of the Fosse Way Roman road (now the A429) and the A44 and served by Moreton-in-Marsh station on the Cotswold Line. The parish and environs are relatively flat and low-lying compared with the surrounding Cotswold Hills. The River Evenlode rises near Batsford, runs around the edge of Moreton and meanders towards Oxford, where it flows into the Thames just east of Eynsham. Just over east of Moreton, the Four Shire Stone marked the boundary of the historic counties of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Oxfordshire, until the re-organisation of the county boundaries in 1931. Since then it marks the meeting place of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire and Oxfordshire.〔(Information for record number MWA3814: The Four Shire Stone ) Warwickshire Museum〕 ==Governance== An electoral ward in the same name exists. The area and population of this ward are identical to that of the parish.
