Trimley St. Martin is a parish and village that lies between two rivers, the Orwell and the Deben, on the long narrow tongue of land from Ipswich to Felixstowe referred to as the Colneis Hundred. The village, and its neighbour Trimley St. Mary, are famous for their adjacent churches, which were built as the result of a historical family feud. St. Martin's church is the northerly church (at ). ==History== Archaeological findings in the Hams Farm area show evidence of prehistoric, Roman, Anglo-Saxon and late post-medieval workings, including fired flints and a number of Central Gaulish Samian ware pieces.〔http://pixel.essex.ac.uk/cat/reports/CAT-report-0754.pdf〕 In nearby Walton, recent archaeological findings show evidence of Bronze Age field systems in use.〔http://www.suffolkcoastal.gov.uk/assets/Documents/District/Planning-DM/WaltonGreen/ES/12.1-DBA-November-2012-REDUCED.pdf〕 The Roman road through Trimley St Martin linked the Roman fort of Walton to the rest of Roman Britain. In the Middle Ages this area was often invaded, overrun, settled and populated by a variety of Scandinavian plunderers. These settlements all soon had their names, usually after the chieftain or leader. Over the centuries these first names have changed considerably, sometimes becoming quite unrecognisable. Trimley is no exception. It has variously been spelled as Tremeleaia, Tremlega, Tremlye, Tremele, Tremeleye, Tremleye and Tremley. In the 14th century, the hamlet of Alston was incorporated into Trimley St Martin. The parish was cut in half by the building of the Trimley-Walton bypass in 1974, which was built to stop port traffic going through the high streets of the Trimleys and Walton. In the early 1980s the village more than doubled in size with the building of the Barrett estate and other houses. 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「Trimley St Martin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
