Corsham

Corsham is a historic market community as well as civil parish in west Wiltshire, England. It goes to the south-western side of the Cotswolds, simply off the A4 nationwide route, 28 miles (45 km) southwest of Swindon, 20 miles (32 kilometres) southeast of Bristol, 8 miles (13 km) northeast of Bath and 4 miles (6 kilometres) southwest of Chippenham. Corsham was historically a centre for farming as well as later on, the wool sector, and also remains a focus for quarrying Bath Stone. It includes several noteworthy historical structures, among them the manor house of Corsham Court. During the Second World War and the Cold War, it ended up being a major administrative as well as production centre for the Ministry of Defence, with various establishments both above ground and also in disused quarry tunnels. The church includes the towns of Gastard and Neston, which goes to the gates of the Neston Park estate. Corsham shows up to acquire its name from Cosa's ham, "ham" being Old English for homestead, or village. The town is referred in the Domesday book as Cosseham; the letter 'R' appears to have actually entered the name later under Norman impact (perhaps triggered by the recording of neighborhood enunciation), when the community is reported to have actually remained in the property of the Earl of Cornwall. Corsham is recorded as Coseham in 1001, as Cosseha in 1086, and as Cosham as late as 1611 (on John Speed's map of Wiltshire). The Corsham area belonged to the King in Saxon times, the area at the time likewise had a big forest which was removed to make way for more development. There is proof that the town had actually been known as "Corsham Regis" as a result of its reputed organization with Anglo-Saxon Ethelred of Wessex, and also this name continues to be as that of a primary school. Among the towns that flourished greatly from Wiltshire's woollen trade in medieval times, it preserved its success after the decrease of that trade with the quarrying of Bathroom rock, with below ground mining functions including the south as well as west of Corsham. The primary turnpike road (now the A4) from London to Bristol went through the community. Numbers 94 to 112 of the High Street are Grade II * listed buildings referred to as the "Flemish Weavers Houses", however there is little cogent evidence to support this name and also it appears more probable to derive from a handful of Dutch workers who showed up in the 17th century. The Grove, opposite the High Street, is a typical example of traditional Georgian style.
