From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Car Colston is an English village and civil parish in the Rushcliffe borough of Nottinghamshire. The population of the civil parish at the time of the 2011 census was 185.

The place appears as Colestone in the Domesday survey of 1086, but as Kyrcoluiston in 1242, and variants thereof subsequently. The original affix, Old Norse kirkja, ‘church’, was later confusingly replaced by Middle English ker, meaning ‘fenland’. The suffix seems to contain an Old Norse personal name Kolr + tΕ«n (Old English), an enclosure; a farmstead; a village; an estate.., so ‘Kolr’s farm/settlement’.
