Tewkesbury


We made our way to Tewkesbury today to see the town with such a perfectly preserved medieval character that in 1964, The Council of British Archaeology listed it amongst 57 towns "so splendid and so precious that the ultimate responsibility for them should be of national concern".  It has one of the best medieval townscapes in England, with its fine half-timbered Tudor buildings, overhanging upperstoreys and ornately carved doorways.
