__NOTOC__ Stoke D'Abernon is a village in the borough of Elmbridge in Surrey, England. It is located on the River Mole, just south of the larger villages of Cobham and Oxshott, and just north of the M25 motorway. Cobham Training Centre, the training ground of Chelsea F.C., is located in the village. ==History== Stoke D'Abernon appears in Domesday Book of 1086 as the manor of ''Stoche'' (derived from the common Anglo-Saxon word ''stoc'', implying a holy place). Its assets were: 2 hides; 2 virgates ; 1 church, 2 mills worth 13s, 4 ploughs, 6 oxen, of meadow, woodland worth 40 hogs. It rendered £5 per year to its feudal system overlords.〔(Surrey Domesday Book )〕 During the reign of Edward the Confessor, the manor was held by his servant, Bricsi Cild.〔Hodgson, Chris, ''A History of The Manor, Stoke D'Abernon'' (Parkside School, 2008). (PDF file )〕 Following the Norman conquest of England in 1066, William the Conqueror granted the manor to his kinsman, Richard fitz Gilbert, who also received the lordship of Clare. The suffix "D'Abernon" comes from the surname of another Norman nobleman, Sir Roger D'Aubernoun, who was also granted land in Surrey in return for his services to William. At some point after 1086, the de Clare family granted the manor of Stoche to the D'Aubernoun family, who held it until the mid-14th century.〔 Two descendants of Sir Roger, Sir John D'Aubernoun the Elder (died 1277) and his son Sir John the Younger (died 1327) are buried in the village; monumental brasses of them are contained in St Mary's Church, with the one of Sir John the Elder believed to be the oldest in England. Until the mid-19th century, Stoke D’Abernon lay in the hundred of Elmbridge, which gave its name to the modern-day borough. Today, the village forms part of the Oxshott & Stoke D'Abernon ward of the borough. 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「Stoke d'Abernon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
