Tetbury - The town of Tetbury is proud of it's 1300 years of recorded history since 681 when Tetta's Monastery was mentioned in a charter by King Ethelred of Mercia. In the Middle Ages, Tetbury was an important market town for the Cotswolds wool trade and the town centre is still dominated by the splendid pillared Market House built in 1655. The town is known as an 'architectural gem' as many of the wool merchants houses still look as they did 300 years ago.

Tetbury is well known for it's many antique shops and its close proximity to Prince Charles's residence of High Grove.

Westonbirt Arboretum - 1.5 miles outside the town.
