Around Tewkesbury : Images of England

The country town of Tewkesbury stands on a spit of gravel surrounded by two major rivers, the Severn and the Avon, and several smaller streams, which, to a great extent, have formulated its shape and its size. And it is these rivers that have brought change to the area in the form of trade, industry and increased population. From images of buildings, streets and businesses to those of the residents, workers and visitors to the town, this second selection shows how Tewkesbury has developed over the years from a vibrant trading post to one of the nation’s favourite tourist places. Tewkesbury Revisited will delight all those who have visited the area and wish to know more about its fascinating history and will provide long-time residents with a nostalgic look back into the past.
