Clyffe Pypard is a village and civil parish about south of Royal Wootton Bassett in North Wiltshire, England.〔(GenUKI )〕 The parish includes the hamlet of Bushton, the former separate village of Bupton, and the ‘shrunken’ Medieval village of Woodhill. Bupton can be found at the South West corner of the parish of Clyffe Pypard and its name appears to arise from land owner William Bubbe, since variations of the name include ‘Bubbeton’ and ‘Great Bupton’. Bupton consists of farms and farmland, but back in the 14th Century it was a medieval village with many more dwellings than today. There was a small chapel and windmill at Woodhill in the 14th Century. The name Woodhill derives from a corruption of ‘woad’, as the location is a ‘hill where Woad grows’ – woad being a plant which gave a blue dye for fabric. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】 accessdate = 19 February 2014 )〕 == History == The ancient name of White Cleeve (or ''"Clive"'' in the Domesday Book) refers to the chalk escarpment that traverses the parish.〔(Victoria County History: A history of the County of Wiltshire, Volume 9 )〕 The Latin phrase at the Goddard Arms Pub, ''Cervus non Servus'' (the stag is not a slave) was the motto of the Goddard family, who owned the manor for many years. Sir Nikolaus Pevsner, the German-born British scholar of history of art and, especially, of history of architecture is buried in the churchyard of St Peter. 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「Clyffe Pypard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
