Upstreet is a village in the civil parish of Chislet in Kent, England. It is in the local government district of Canterbury, and the electoral ward of Marshside. Upstreet is a ribbon development along the A28 road. The majority of houses are new and dating from the 1950s onwards. However, there are a number of older houses such as the Grade II listed building 'Grove Court' 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title =Grove Court, Chislet )〕 or the Grade I listed 'Upstreet Farmhouse', which was built in the 16th century and stands in an acre of its own land.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title =Upstreet Farmhouse, Chislet )〕 Also listed are 'La Cresi D'or'〔(【引用サイトリンク】title =La Cresi D'or, Chislet )〕 and 'The Vision House' (No89 and No94)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title =The Vision House, Chislet )〕 Close to Upstreet is the Stodmarsh National Nature Reserve, Grove Ferry Picnic Area and the River Stour. Also the Saxon Shore Way (long distance footpath) also passes the village between Chislet and Stourmouth. Upstreet has a few services (a post office, two car garages, two elderly care homes and two pubs), but the number of services is declining due to rising car ownership. For example, 45 years ago there was a railway station, haberdashery, greengrocer's, butcher's, baker's etc. However now there is no railway station and the post office consolidates the uses of a post office, greengrocer's, haberdashery, baker's, butcher's, etc. all under one roof. ==References== 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「Upstreet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
