by Stephen Lambe
Paperback / softback
Description
Tewkesbury is one of the most fascinating towns in the England.
It is known to have been settled as early as the 7th Century, but the site really came into its own during the medieval period, with the establishment of its famous Norman Abbey.
Following the Battle of Tewkesbury, which ended the first phase of the Wars of the Roses in 1471, the Town continued to thrive into the Tudor period and beyond.
Today it remains a busy market town, loved by its residents and much visited during the spring and summer.
The rivers Avon and Severn converge near the town, while three long-distance footpaths - the Avon, Severn and Gloucestershire ways - pass through the Town. Stephen Lambe's meticulously-crafted book is the product of many months treading the footpaths around the Town.
It features walks to suit all ages and abilities. Most of the walks are accessible from Tewkesbury Town Centre, while several others require a short journey to local villages, such as Bredon, Forthampton, Twyning or Apperley.
Each walk is described in detail, with colour photos and maps to guide the reader through every twist and turn. Whether you are a local resident or a visitor to the Town, this is the perfect way to spend some time in and around this delightful Gloucestershire Town.
