Sutton upon Tern is a civil parish in Shropshire, England. Expanded in 1914 after the abolition of the parish Drayton in Hales,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10277061 )〕 Its name in Old English means 'South farm/settlement' on the River Tern.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://kepn.nottingham.ac.uk/map/place/Shropshire/Sutton%20upon%20Tern )〕 It is situated south of Market Drayton, on the River Tern. ==About== In the 2011 census it had a population of 1,232, the majority of them between the ages of 35-55. A description of Sutton upon Tern was written in the early 1870s: :"SUTTON, a township in Drayton-in-Hales parish, Salop; 1 mile SSW of Market-Drayton. Pop., 177" It is unusual in that a small area of the parish, at Ternhill, is almost an exclave of the parish (only a 5m wide strip of land joins it with the bulk of the parish). Located north-west within the parish, is Service Family Accommodation for nearby Clive Barracks. "The housing estates are not behind the wire and consist of two areas; Buntingsdale Park (mainly Officer’s housing) and Buntingsdale Estate for other ranks". There is a local Primary School, Buntingsdale Primary School〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.buntingsdale.shropshire.sch.uk/ )〕 and pub nearby. The parish also includes the hamlet of Woodseaves, in the east of the parish on the A529. Woodseaves is also the midpoint of the longest north–south axis of the UK. Other than a few houses there is a nearby pub, The Four Alls Inn,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thefouralls.com/ )〕 Garden centre and narrow gauge railway attraction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.woodseavesminirail.co.uk/ )〕 Along the Western border of the parish runs the A41 that is built upon a Roman Road linking the fort of Mediolanum (Whitchurch) to Pennocrucium (Stretton, Staffordshire).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://shropshirehistory.com/roads/romanroads.htm )〕 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「Sutton upon Tern」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
