A village of corn coloured stone, lying at to bottom of the steep escarpment
at the edge of the Cotswolds. From Morris onwards, artists have drawn
inspiration from the line and form, the textures and the composition, of what
was then a typical English village. The "broad way" is the main street that is lined with red chestnut trees. The village originally grew up as a stage coach stop. The Lygon Arms and some two dozen other inns, were there to supply fresh
horses for coaches for the long, steep haul up the escarpment. Today at the top
of the escarpment is the Broadway Tower, from which you have a commanding view
of the countryside. The village also has a selection of gift shops and antique shops, that have
been well incorporated into the existing architecture. |
