 Burford
|
|
| Burford,
originally a major coaching stop for horse drawn carriages,
up to 30 a day, and the inns were known for their large portions,
serving "Burford bait".
Now a busy town, most of the original old inns still exist,
with Tudor buildings, visit the Tolsey Museum in the toll
house.
The church has the tomb of Speaker Letnall, who stopped Charles
I trying to arrest the Members of Parliament in 1642, as well
as 17th century graffiti written by mutineers captures by
Cromwell.
Small villages in the area, and walks along the River Windrush.
