Neighbourhood information

On the confluence of the Rivers Severn and Avon, this historic riverfront town retains its mediaeval charm with a large number of half-timbered Tudor structures. With more than 350 buildings that are recognised as being of historic interest and located in a conservation area, Tewkesbury is renowned for having one of the greatest mediaeval Black and White townscapes in the nation. In addition to numerous museums, a heritage centre, and a wealth of unique shops, tea rooms, restaurants, taverns, and wine bars, the town is home to an impressive 12th-century abbey with the tallest Norman tower in England. The town hosts music festivals, vintage and food fairs, farmers' markets, and other events all year round. The Severn Way and Shakespeare's Avon Way are both close by, and there are many excellent walks that can be enjoyed from the town. A ancient Georgian town close to the opulent spa resort of Cheltenham, it offers a staggering selection of stores, theatres, restaurants, pubs, and tourist attractions. Other festivals in this bustling town include ones for comedy, music, science, literature, and cricket, to mention a few! The racecourse hosts a number of additional horse racing events throughout the year in addition to the yearly, internationally renowned Gold Cup races. The ancient city of Gloucester boasts lively city centres, Victorian Docklands, a majestic Norman cathedral, and cloisters that appeared in the Harry Potter movies.
