Blackborough is a hamlet and civil parish in the Mid Devon district of Devon, England. Its nearest town is Cullompton, which lies approximately south-west from the hamlet. It is home to Hayne Farm, the Old Smithy, and Blackborough House. ==Blackborough House== (詳細はlisted building Blackborough House. This was built in 1838 by George Wyndham, 4th Earl of Egremont, but was never completed. Originally designed as an Italianate palace, there were no funds to complete it, so it was constructed as two smaller, linked buildings. The house was variously used as a school, a religious institution for wayfarers and for training conscientious objectors for relief work〔Stanley Smith, Cups without saucers, Spiceland Quaker Training Centre, William Sessions Limited, 1990. ISBN 1-85072-064-9〕 during World War II. As of 2011, the house is semi-derelict and surrounded, as previously recorded 〔Bridget Cherry and Nikolaus Pevsner, Buildings of England: Devon. Second edition. Penguin Books, 1991.〕 by a car dump or scrap yard.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work = Save Britain's Heritage )〕 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「Blackborough, Devon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
