Part of the village is a Conservation Area and a number of the 450 dwellings are listed buildings. ==History== The remains of a Roman villa provide evidence of early habitation in the parish.〔Page, 1927, pages 249-251〕 It is about northeast of the village, about from the river and lies east of Tingewick Mill.〔Pevsner, 1960, page 269〕 The villa was partly excavated in 1860-62.〔〔 The toponym is derived from the Old English for "Teoda's dwelling". The Domesday Book of 1086 records the village as ''Tedinwiche''.〔 The earliest part of the Church of England parish church of Saint Mary Magdalene is the Norman 12th century nave.〔 The three-bay north aisle was added in about 1200.〔 The Perpendicular gothic〔Pevsner, 1960, page 268〕 chancel and bell-tower were added late in the 15th century.〔 The north aisle was altered in the 17th century, the south aisle was added in 1830 and the south porch in 1867.〔 The tower has a ring of five bells.〔 The oldest was cast in London in about 1490 and is inscribed ''Nomen Magdalene Campana Gerit Melodie''.〔 The second bell was cast by Bartholomew Atton of Buckingham〔 in 1591. Robert Atton of Buckingham〔 cast the fourth bell in 1623〔 and the treble bell in 1627.〔 The youngest bell in the ring is the tenor, cast by Henry Bagley III of Chacombe and Witney〔 in 1721.〔 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「Tingewick」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
