Sawley is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is about west of Ripon. From this position, the Yorkshire Dales are to the west and the North Yorkshire Moors and coast are to the east. The village is located within the Nidderdale area of outstanding natural beauty. Sawley is one of 27 parish councils who represent the interests of the people who live in the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nidderdaleaonb.org.uk/nidderdale-34 )〕 In the 1870s, Sawley was described as "a township-chapelry, with a village and four hamlets, in Ripon parish, W. R. Yorkshire." The township's four hamlets were Cowbush, Hungate, North Pastures, and Rispleth.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/WRY/Ripon/Ripon68.html )〕 ==History== Sawley dates back to the Saxon era〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://sawley.org/about/about.html )〕 where it gained its name from Old English and the Anglian dialect. From this period, Sawley is directly translated as "Willow-tree wood".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://kepn.nottingham.ac.uk/map/place/Yorkshire%20WR/Sawley )〕 The village is thought to have been the main source of stone for the construction of Fountains Abbey in the 10th century. The world heritage site which is now maintained by the National Trust is approximately two miles away from the village.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ukvillages.co.uk/Content/Show/38361/Sawley+Village+Hall )〕 Sawley is mentioned in the ''Domesday Book'' as "Sallai” or “Sallaia", in the Burgshire Hundred of the West Riding of Yorkshire. It comprised 18 villagers, 21 smallholders, 1 freeman, and 1 thane, with 40 ploughlands, a meadow of , woodland of 1 league, a mill and a fishery. In 1066 the Lord was Ealdred, Archbishop of York St Peter. After 1086 the created Lord of the Manor title was given to the new Archbishop of York, Thomas of Bayeux, who also became Tenant-in-chief.〔("Sawley" ), Domesdaymap.co.uk. Retrieved 8 April 2013〕〔("Documents Online: Sawley, Yorkshire" ), Folios: 303v, 380r, ''Great Domesday Book''; The National Archives. Retrieved 8 April 2013〕 From 1837, Sawley was part of the Ripon registration district but has been involved in several changes regarding these districts and boundaries. It became a separate civil parish in 1866. In 1946, the parish was transferred to the Claro registration district. During this same change, Sawley had a boundary change where part of the area was transferred to the parish of High and Low Bishopside. During this time, the total population which was transferred was 20. Sawley was transferred from the West Riding to the new county of North Yorkshire in 1974. Sawley remained part of the Claro registration district until 1998 when it was abolished. From this point, Sawley has been part of the North Yorkshire registration county.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/ripon.html )〕 Census data of Sawley dates back to 1871, with the earliest total population figure being 341.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/data_cube_page.jsp?data_theme=T_POP&data_cube=N_TOT_POP&u_id=10466830&c_id=10001043&add=N )〕 The population has been relatively constant with the highest population record being in 1881 with 372 and the lowest available data being in 1961 with 251. According to the 2011 census, Sawley had a population of 299.This is only one less than the 2001 census where the population was 300. Historically, Sawley's industry was mainly based in agriculture with 36.7% of the working population working in this industry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/data_theme_page.jsp?u_id=10466830&c_id=10001043&data_theme=T_IND )〕 This has dropped in the following years with agriculture now only accounting for 12% of Sawley's industry, based on 2011 census figures. The decline in agriculture follows a similar pattern to the rest of Britain with a major decline in agriculture due to increased trade as well as a shift towards secondary industry and tertiary industry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://en.internationalism.org/wr/246_britag.htm )〕 This now means that the main industry in Sawley is now 'Wholesale and Retail Trade; Repair of Motor Vehicles and Motor Cycles', with 14.9% of people being based in this industry. 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「Sawley, North Yorkshire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
