The historic county boundary between Leicestershire and Derbyshire is the River Mease, which runs through the village, with the village centre being on the southern (Derbyshire side), forming part of an exclave of Derbyshire. In 1086, Donisthorpe was part of the land given to Nigel of Stafford by William the Conqueror.〔The Domesday Book〕 When administrative counties were set up, this exclave was considered to be part of Leicestershire. The Derbyshire town of Swadlincote is usually given as the nearest town for the purposes of the postal service. ==Transport== The railway came to Donisthorpe in 1873 in the guise of the Ashby & Nuneaton Joint Railway, see the Battlefield Line Railway (the last existing section of the ANJR) for more details. 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「Donisthorpe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
