Prebendal Farm is a housing estate in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England. It is located to the south of the town, bordered by the Oxford Road, the railway and the Bearbrook (a minor stream that rises in Bedgrove and is a tributary of the River Thame). Prebendal Farm was originally a farm on the outskirts of the old town of Aylesbury, and was one of the primary locations where the Aylesbury duck industry was developed.〔(History of the Aylesbury duck )〕 The owner at that time was John Kersley Fowler who was the proposer of Benjamin Disraeli for Member of Parliament for Buckinghamshire. The new housing estate was built in the 1970s and the major road through the estate was named after J. K. Fowler (above). Since then the estate has seen a period of decline to the extent that it is now recognised as one of the most relatively deprived areas of the district.〔(Indices of Deprivation 2007 )〕 This led to the Coldharbour ward (of which Prebendal Farm is a part) being the pilot Neighbourhood Policing initiative for the Thames Valley Police area〔(Information on the Neighbourhood Policing Initiative from Coldharbour Parish Council )〕〔(New village pub plans revealed, the Bucks Herald 27 April, 2007 )〕 and has subsequently led to the formation of a Residents' Group〔(Prebendal Farm Residents' Group )〕 and youth club〔(Prebendal Farm Youth Club, information provided by Buckinghamshire County Council )〕 on the estate. == Education == Bearbrook Combined School is a mixed primary school in Prebendal Farm. It is a community school, which takes children from the age of 4 through to the age of 11. The school has approximately 350 pupils.〔(Ofsted Report )〕〔(DfES Performance Tables )〕〔(Buckinghamshire County Council - Schools Zone )〕 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「Prebendal Farm, Aylesbury」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
