North Muskham is a village and civil parish in Nottinghamshire, England, close to the border with Lincolnshire. It is located between the River Trent and the A1 road, north of Newark-upon-Trent. The parish has a population of 943 (2001 census) with around 360 properties.〔http://www.northmuskham.com/〕 St Wilfrid's Church is the parish church, a medieval building which is Grade I listed. It was restored during 1906 and 1907. There are currently two public houses: 'The Muskham Ferry' and 'The Crown'. == History == The village appears in the Domesday Book as ''Muscham''.〔http://www.probertencyclopaedia.com/cgi-bin/res.pl?keyword=North+Muskham&offset=0〕 North Muskham was a large ancient parish, which also included the villages of Bathley and Holme. Until about 1575 the River Trent ran further east, but there was then a cataclysmic flood which changed the course of the river.〔(Winthorpe Community Website: Langford Church History )〕 Holme was therefore separated by the river from the rest of the parish. In 1866 Holme and Bathley became separate civil parishes.〔(Vision of Britain website )〕 Between 1870 and 1872 John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales recorded the parish as having 194 houses with a real estate value of £5,161, with a manor belonging to Mr J. T. Edge. 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「North Muskham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
