Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JMA8E1 - Situated between the town of Stroud and the village of Chalford, Brimscombe Port is a stunning location at the foot of the Cotswold escarpment, next to the River Frome and Thames and Severn Canal.
Brimscombe Port started life in 1779 and became a key transfer point for sea-going barges to narrow boats accommodating some 100 vessels at its height. Sadly the canal and basin were filled in after the Second World War. The canal headquarters, which then became a school, was demolished as part of road straightening in the 1960s. The Port took on a new lease of life as an industrial estate, becoming home to a number businesses, including the family run ring binder company Benson & Sons. Sadly, as businesses moved out of the site, it started to fall into disrepair.
Recently, the Port was a temporary home to a number of Community Interest Companies whilst viability for the site was assessed and funding was secured.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JMD5NK - HISTORY: The police station, formerly Willow House, was built in Badbrook, on the rural edge of Stroud, probably in the early C18. Willow House was converted to a police station in 1858 to the designs of James Medland of Gloucester (the County Surveyor between 1857 and 1889). Medland designed most of the county's eleven purpose-built courts and police stations constructed between the 1860s and 1880s. Extensions to Stroud police station, designed by Medland, were carried out in 1885-6 when a cell block, stables and an office block to the north-west of the station were built. The office block was converted to a Petty Sessional Court in 1908 by Robert Phillips, architect to the Gloucestershire Education Committee. Other extensions and alterations were also carried out in the C20. The police station (now called Willow Court) and the stabling behind (now called Willow House) were converted to business use in the late C20. The court became the Liberal Club, until the early C21.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JNBXKK - Moreton-in-Marsh is a market town in the Evenlode Valley, within the Cotswolds district and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Gloucestershire, England.
The town stands at the crossroads of the Fosse Way Roman road (now the A429) and the A44. It is served by Moreton-in-Marsh railway station on the Cotswold Line. It is relatively flat and low-lying compared with the surrounding Cotswold Hills. The River Evenlode rises near Batsford, runs around the edge of Moreton and meanders towards Oxford, where it flows into the Thames just east of Eynsham.
Just over 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Moreton, the Four shire stone marked the boundary of the historic counties of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Oxfordshire, until the re-organisation of the county boundaries in 1931. Since then it marks the meeting place of Gloucestershire, Warwickshire and Oxfordshire.
Moreton-in-Marsh railway station on the Cotswold Line.
Moreton is derived from Old English which means Farmstead on the Moor and in Marsh is from henne and mersh meaning a marsh used by birds such as moorhens. An alternative suggestion is that 'Marsh' is a corruption of 'March', early English for boundary
Each September the town hosts the UK's largest one-day agricultural show. Held on part of the Batsford Estate, the show has been running since 1949.
Rail services to/from Moreton-in-Marsh station are provided by Great Western Railway. The fastest direct trains from London Paddington station take around 90 minutes. Since the opening of Worcestershire Parkway railway station in 2020 the fastest journey times from Birmingham have been cut to around 75 minutes

Hobbits, Tolkien & The Bell Inn Moreton-in-Marsh “ Did this Cotswold's Pub Inspire Bree's Prancing Pony
If you have ever felt like escaping to Tolkien's Legendarium of Middle Earth, then you only need to pop over to the Cotswolds in the UK!
It's highly considered that The Bell Inn Moreton-in-Marsh was the inspiration for The Prancing Pony in the town of Bree. This is one of Middle Earth's most popular pubs featured in the Lord of the Rings!
What is The Bell Inn Moreton-in-Marsh and Tolkien Connection?
Of course, it's commonly known that J. R. R. Tolkien was a resident and academic at Oxford. As a professor of English Language and Literature, he would tutor students at both Pembroke and Merton College.
Tolkien's brother lived in Evesham. A small market town in Worcestershire that was the ancestral home to Tolkien's mother, Mabel Suffield.
Unlike his brother, Hilary Tolkien had an interest in agriculture over academia! So, he bought a small orchard and market garden on the outskirts of Evesham in 1922.
J. R. R. Tolkien and his family visited his farm and stayed many times. According to him, ˜Worcestershire was more like home than any other part of the world'.
On many occasions, while he was an academic at Oxford, Tolkien would arrange to meet his brother Hilary in Moreton-in-Marsh.
It was the perfect meeting point as it was located halfway between the homes of the two Tolkien brothers!
They would meet up at The Bell Inn Moreton-in-Marsh and have a lengthy catch-up over a pint in a tiny corner of the pub.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JNBXP4 - Redesdale Hall, also referred to as Moreton-in-Marsh Town Hall, is a municipal building in the High Street, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire, England. The building, which is used as an events venue, is a Grade II listed building
The opportunity to replace an old 18th century market hall, which had become dilapidated, arose following the death of the writer of religious polemics, John Freeman-Mitford, 1st Earl of Redesdale, in 1886. The earl, who had died unmarried, left all his estates to his distant cousin, Algernon Freeman-Mitford, who duly became lord of the manor and decided to erect a new building, in memory of his generous cousin, for benefit of the inhabitants of the town. It was designed by Sir Ernest George and Harold Peto in the Free Tudor style, built by Peto Brothers of Pimlico in ashlar stone and was officially opened by the Minister without Portfolio, Sir Michael Hicks Beach, on 2 December 1887.
The design involved a near-symmetrical main frontage with six bays facing east down Oxford Street
the ground floor was arcaded, although never used as a market hall as such. On the first floor, the first bay was blind
the second, third and fifth bays were fenestrated by four-light mullioned windows

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JNBXP6 - Redesdale Hall, also referred to as Moreton-in-Marsh Town Hall, is a municipal building in the High Street, Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire, England. The building, which is used as an events venue, is a Grade II listed building
The opportunity to replace an old 18th century market hall, which had become dilapidated, arose following the death of the writer of religious polemics, John Freeman-Mitford, 1st Earl of Redesdale, in 1886. The earl, who had died unmarried, left all his estates to his distant cousin, Algernon Freeman-Mitford, who duly became lord of the manor and decided to erect a new building, in memory of his generous cousin, for benefit of the inhabitants of the town. It was designed by Sir Ernest George and Harold Peto in the Free Tudor style, built by Peto Brothers of Pimlico in ashlar stone and was officially opened by the Minister without Portfolio, Sir Michael Hicks Beach, on 2 December 1887.
The design involved a near-symmetrical main frontage with six bays facing east down Oxford Street
the ground floor was arcaded, although never used as a market hall as such. On the first floor, the first bay was blind
the second, third and fifth bays were fenestrated by four-light mullioned windows
the fourth bay featured a sundial which was surmounted by a chimney stack, while the sixth bay was fenestrated by a single mullioned window. The south elevation featured a panel containing the Redesdale coat of arms.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JNBY89 - Chipping Campden is a market town in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England. It is notable for its terraced High Street, dating from the 14th century to the 17th century. (Chipping is from Old English cēping, 'market', 'market-place'
the same element is found in other towns such as Chipping Norton, Chipping Sodbury and Chipping (now High) Wycombe.)
A wool trading centre in the Middle Ages, Chipping Campden enjoyed the patronage of wealthy wool merchants, most notably William Greville (d.1401). The High Street is lined with buildings built from locally quarried oolitic limestone known as Cotswold stone, and boasts a wealth of vernacular architecture. Much of the town centre is a conservation area which has helped to preserve the original buildings. The town is an end point of the Cotswold Way, a 102-mile long-distance footpath.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JNBYAC - By 1881, the third Earl, Charles William Francis Noel, had succeeded his father and the same year he donated land at the junction of Cow Fair and Back Ends for the building of a church on the site of an old barn. Including a generous donation from the Earl and his wife, the cost of the church was met by community donations and fundraising that included a weekly lottery and penny readings in the Noel Arms.
The church was designed by the architect W. Lunn of Malvern and the opening ceremony was performed in September 1891. The church is built of local stone in the early Perpendicular style that prevailed in the reigns of Henry IV and V, harmonising with other ancient buildings in the town.
Dedicated to St. Catharine, the church consists of a nave, aisles, chancel and transept, with a sacristy and outer sacristy and a fine bell turret surmounting the south transept. The High Altar was the work of sculptor A. N. Wall of Cheltenham. On the right-hand side of the chancel are three Sedalia let into the wall, carved in stone.
The nave is sixty-five feet in length with a total height of forty feet. Between this and the north aisle is a beautiful arcade of four arches with eight windows in the clerestory above. The nave roof is composed entirely of red deal and is of very beautiful construction, the beams being ornamented with fine carvery and tracing. That of the chancery is of English oak, unpolished and arranged in panels and enhanced by some richly carved oak tracery covering the wall plate at the base. The church seats approximately 250 people in deal pews

the same element is found in other towns such as Chipping Norton, Chipping Sodbury and Chipping (now High) Wycombe.)
A wool trading centre in the Middle Ages, Chipping Campden enjoyed the patronage of wealthy wool merchants, most notably William Greville (d.1401). The High Street is lined with buildings built from locally quarried oolitic limestone known as Cotswold stone, and boasts a wealth of vernacular architecture. Much of the town centre is a conservation area which has helped to preserve the original buildings. The town is an end point of the Cotswold Way, a 102-mile long-distance footpath.
Chipping Campden has hosted its own Olympic Games since 1612.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2B1YFY4 - Tetbury is a small town and civil parish inside the Cotswold district in England. It lies on the site of an ancient hill fort, on which an Anglo-Saxon monastery was founded, probably by Ine of Wessex, in 681. The population of the parish was 5,250 in the 2001 census, increasing to 5,472 at the 2011 census.
During the Middle Ages, Tetbury became an important market for Cotswold wool and yarn. The Tetbury Woolsack Races, founded 1972, is an annual competition where participants must carry a 60-pound (27 kg) sack of wool up and down a steep hill (Gumstool Hill). The Tetbury Woolsack Races take place on the late May Bank Holiday, the last Monday in May each year.
Notable buildings in the town include the Church House, Market House, built in 1655 and the late-eighteenth century Gothic revival parish church of St Mary the Virgin and St Mary Magdalene and much of the rest of the town centre, dating from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The Market House is a fine example of a Cotswold pillared market house and is still in use as a meeting place and market. Other attractions include the Police Bygones Museum. Chavenage House, Highgrove House and Westonbirt Arboretum lie just outside the town.

The distingtive castle or tower design was first used by the Cheltenham Brewery. After the Second World War it acquired the Hereford and Tredegarbreweries becoming the Cheltenham and Herefordbrewery.The original design read Cheltenham & Hereford where it now reads West Country Ales.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy P4HWP5 - Barney the owner started by making Eau De Vie when he came out of his career as a nature photographer, he delicately picks the fruit for each flavour, washing, peeling and preparing each by hand.
After a number of seasons making the different Eau De Vies he then ventured into gin. Barney would soak hundreds of botanicals in a neutral spirit to discover which gave the best flavours, then with each botanical would go through the different species to see which would go the best with the other botanicals.
The final product is created like this: Hard spices, berries and herbs are soaked in our neutral British wheat spirit for 40 hours. We then suspend fresh blood orange zest and a rich mix of flowers and fragrant leaves above the liquid, their aroma gently extracted by the rising steam. 34 ingredients in all come together in a slow 7-hour, carefully guided distillation. It creates a sum much greater than its parts.
The dry flavour is matched with a lovely spearmint flavour which stays with you long after you drink it.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCYCHX - A Brief History of St Peter's Parish Church
There has been a church dedicated to St Peter on this site from the early 800s. The earlier building fell into disrepair in the early 1400s and was rebuilt in the Perpendicular style between about 1452 and 1460 by the Abbot of Winchcombe and the townspeople with the encouragement and support of Ralph Boteler, Lord of Sudeley. He arranged for his father and elder brothers to be reburied in the chapel at the east end of the new St Peter's, and provided them with carved effigies. They were also portrayed in the stained glass of the side windows
his sisters and presumably his mother were portrayed in the chapel on the north side. The new church was almost certainly the first here to be provided with seating, as the clergy responded to the challenge of the radical reformist movement of the Lollards with more instructive sermons. Embroidered panels from the new vestments acquired at that time have survived and are displayed in a cabinet in the north aisle.
Not long after this rebuilding the Church entered a period of great turbulence as part of the English Reformation in the reign of Henry VIII (1509 - 1547). The most dramatic change was the suppression of Winchcombe Abbey in 1539, following which all of the Abbey's (and the Abbot's) possessions and income were transferred into lay hands. As the Abbot was also the Rector of St Peter's, this meant much of the income that had financed St Peter's dried up and the church was left impoverished for centuries. At the same time a translation of the Bible into English was introduced into all churches, followed shortly afterwards by the first version of the Book of Common Prayer. Relics and pictures encouraging ˜idolatry' were removed.
Change continued in the reign of Henry VIII's son Edward VI (1547-1553). More info at https://winchcombeparish.org.uk/a-brief-history-of-st-peters-parish-church.php

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy D8HDNY - The super historic market square off the village green at Witney in lovely West Oxfordshire, sitting on the river Windrush, about 12 or so miles from Morses Oxford after a rain shower. It is also the constituancy of Mr Cameroone, current leader of the Tory party (possible prime minister or another ex-Tory leader if he fluffs that gig in May 2010).
A buttercross (as seen here), also known as butter cross, is a type of market cross associated with English market towns, such as Witney and dating from medieval times. Its name originates from the fact that they were located at the market place (same as today), where people from neighbouring villages would gather to buy locally produced butter, milk and eggs. The fresh produce was laid out and displayed on the circular stepped bases of the cross.
Their design varies from place to place, but they are usually covered by some type of roof to offer shelter, although the roofs were mostly added at a much later date than the original cross they cover.
Witney Market began in the Middle Ages. Thursday is the traditional market day and I have spent some interesting lunchtimes here. There is also a market on Saturday. The buttercross was built in about 1600 and its clock was added in 1683.
