Pave Lane is a hamlet in the Telford and Wrekin district of Shropshire, approximately south of the centre of the market town of Newport, just outside the small village of Chetwynd Aston.〔Ordnance Survey mapping〕 There is a large public house in Pave Lane — "The Fox".〔(WhatPub.com ) (CAMRA) The Fox, Chetwynd Aston〕 ==History== Because of its location on a toll road between Newport and Wolverhampton, which became the A41, the area became the site of many inns and coach houses. By 1767 it had become the site of a small lime works and brick works owned by local landlord Lord Gower, who made Pave Lane the terminus of Donnington Wood Canal. Limestone and coal was sold at the wharf at Pave Street and supplied the growing town of Newport with coal. The rise of railways and carriages meant the canal went into decline and the Pave Lane stretch of the canal closed in 1882; the canal has since been filled in.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Shropshire's History Advanced Search | Shropshire's History Advanced Search )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Shropshire's History Advanced Search | Shropshire's History Advanced Search )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Donnington Wood Canal )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mining in Lilleshall )〕 The A41 road no longer runs through Pave Lane, instead it now passes on a new alignment just to the east of Pave Lane and Chetwynd Aston.〔 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「Pave Lane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
