Description

A picturesque English town, Burford stands on the River Windrush and is often called 'the gateway to the Cotswolds'. At first glance, time appears to have stood still with its centuries-old honey-stoned buildings, quiet courtyards and ancient inns all contribute to that impression. Yet, while the fabric of the town may be old and weathered, its inhabitants, both past and present, have continued to adapt with the passing of time.

 

This highly illustrated book, features 58 personal observations written by David Cohen, a long-time resident and chairman of the Burford Tolsey Museum & Archive, relating to different aspects of the town’s rich history and day-to-day life. Collectively, they offer poignant insights into the town’s response to historic events, the comings and goings of those who have spent time here, and the lives of some of its more colourful, and occasionally controversial, characters.

 

By documenting these often-amusing stories of a vibrant and historic community, this book serves as a record of life in this country town.
