Seagry
Seagry is a civil parish in Wiltshire, England, about southeast of Malmesbury and northeast of Chippenham. Its main settlements are the village of Upper Seagry (first documented in 1317 as 'Over Seagry') and the hamlet of Lower Seagry (first documented in 1218 as 'Nether Seagry').
The toponym is thought to derive from the Old English for "sedge stream",〔The word "sedge" refers to several types of plants associated with watery land, and it is unclear which is meant here.〕 possibly referring to the River Avon which flows through the area.
==History==
There is evidence that the area was settled in the Upper Paleolithic period, and also of Saxon occupation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Wiltshire Community History - Seagry )〕 The Domesday Book of 1086 records two manors, that of Durand of Gloucester ''Segrete'', and that of Dru Fitz Ponz, ''Segrie''.
''Segrete'' became part of the estates of the Earl of Hereford, and later passed into the ownership of Bradenstoke Abbey until the Dissolution of the Monasteries.〔 A grange farm at Lower Seagry was associated with the Abbey.
