Tewkesbury is an ancient settlement at the meeting of the rivers Severn & Avon.
The town features one of the best medieval townscapes in England with its fine half-timbered buildings,
overhanging upperstoreys, Norman Abbey, and narrow alleyways.
It is associated with one of the major battles of the Wars of the Roses, and battle enactments and battle
walks take place in the town throughout the year.
