BERKELEY is two miles West, off the
busy Gloucester/Bristol trunk road (A38), and sits at the head
of the Berkeley Vale, some of Gloucestershire's most beautiful
countryside. Berkeley is rich in all sorts of history, and well known
for its people, events and science.
Berkeley
Castle is the most famous
landmark in the area and suffice to say, the town's history begins
there and moves through almost every building around the town centre.
It is said that William Shakespeare lived for a short time
in the area, but the most famous personage is almost certainly Edward
Jenner, the founder and father of immunology.
His most important
contribution, to this day blessed by millions around the world,
is the global eradication of Smallpox. The
Edward Jenner Museum is close to the town's centre.
