"The Cotswold Town and Village Guide": The latest fully updated
edition of the "Definitive Guide to Places of Interest in the
Cotswolds" as the author says this is the result of my continuing
love affair with the Cotswolds, an area that I have known for most
of my life and one that I have been visiting with my camera and
notebook for well over fifty years. A glance at the maps contained
in this book will soon reveal that the area covered extends well
beyond the classic Cotswolds, but it never strays far from true
limestone country with its typically lovely stone towns and
villages. These are enfolded by rolling hills and quiet wooded
valleys through which clear streams flow and all have a similar
character to the better-known places of pilgrimage like Stow on the
Wold, Cirencester, Bourton-on-the-Water or Broadway. Of course
these favourites have not been ignored. The Cotswold countryside is
as near to perfection as one could wish for, but it is still
further enhanced by the treasures to be found within its towns,
villages and hamlets. Here are some of Britain's loveliest medieval
churches and domestic buildings, almost all of which are built of
the marvellous honey coloured Cotswold stone that here lies so
close to the surface. When setting out on your journeys of
discovery, savour each day and not try to cover too much ground -
it has taken me most of a lifetime to get round it all! If possible
buy a good map or maps (preferably Ordnance Survey ones) and walk
from village to village along a quiet footpath or bridleway,
stopping beside a stream for a picnic, or at a pub for lunch. This
is another book from Reardon Publishing the Cotswold Publisher.
