Moreton-in-marsh
Moreton-in-Marsh (population 3,493) is a tiny market town in the Evenlode Valley, within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Gloucestershire, England. The town stands at the crossroads of the Fosse Way Roman road (currently the A429) as well as the A44. It is served by Moreton-in-Marsh railway station on the Cotswold Line. It is fairly level as well as low-lying compared to the bordering Cotswold Hills. The River Evenlode rises near Batsford, runs around the edge of Moreton and meanders towards Oxford, where it flows into the Thames simply eastern of Eynsham. Simply over 1.5 miles (2.4 km) eastern of Moreton, the 4 county rock noted the boundary of the historical regions of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Oxfordshire, until the re-organisation of the region boundaries in 1931. Since then it marks the meeting place of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire and also Oxfordshire. Moreton is derived from Old English which implies "Farmstead on the Moor" and "in Marsh" is from henne and also mersh indicating a marsh used by birds such as moorhens. An alternative tip is that 'Marsh' is a corruption of 'March', early English for border.
