About Winchcombe:
To experience the quintessentially English town of
Winchcombe, is to part-take of a miscellany of pure delights.
This is an ancient town that was once the capital of the Kingdom of
Mercia, it can lay claim to a long and almost continuous occupation. The
three main streets tumble together and teem with old and ancient
buildings, some built of local stone and some of the charming Tudor
variety built of wattle and doub and structured around massive oak
timbers that defy the passing of time. The individuality of the cottages
and houses, some with creeper spreading up over old walls reaching for
little dormer windows set beneath neatly tiled roofs, are what form the
character of this pleasant little town where each and every building is
an absolute joy.
Prosperity came to Winchcombe with the development of the Wool trade and
it is money from the rich wool merchants that built the Perpendicular
church of St. Peter between 1456 and 1474. A fine weather cock is
pinnacle above the west tower and gargoyles surround the entire
building. The interior has amazing medieval glass to some of the windows
and there is a beautiful brass candelabrum which dates 1753. Other
notable buildings in the town include the 700 year old George Inn, once
used as a stopping place for pilgrims.
The romantic castle of Sudeley that once belonged to Ethelred the
Unready is but a short distance from Winchcombe. The castle was also the
home of Henry VIII's last Queen, Catherine Parr. Following King Henry's
death, Catherine married Lord Seymour of Sudeley, but sadly she died in
childbirth the year after her marriage. Catherine is entombed in the
castle chapel which dates from the year 1450. During the Civil War the
castle was used as headquarters for Charles Ist, it was laid siege to in
1643 and in 1644. The castle houses fine paintings and exquisite old
furniture. There are tapestries and many other antique objects. In the
grounds of the castle, roses grow. The air is filled with the scent of
fragrant, old, full blown roses that thrive in a peaceful garden
setting, surrounded by yew hedges and known as the Queens Garden. As
with the quaint town of Winchcombe, this ancient castle and beautiful
gardens are well worth a leisurely visit.
Other nearby attractions are; Stanway House and Water Garden, Chedworth
Roman Villa at Yanworth and Whittington Court at Whittington.
Early history
Part of the main streetThe Belas Knap Neolithic long barrow on a hilltop
above Winchcombe, was constructed from about 3000 BC[citation needed]
Later, during Anglo-Saxon times, Winchcombe was a chief city of
Mercia[citation needed] favoured by Coenwulf;[1] the others being
Lichfield and Tamworth. Subsequently, during the 11th century, the town
was briefly the county town of Winchcombeshire. The Anglo-Saxon saint
St. Kenelm is believed to be buried in the town.
Notable buildings
In Winchcombe and the immediate vicinity can be found Sudeley Castle and
the remains of Hailes Abbey, which was one of the main centres of
pilgrimages in Britain due to a phial possessed by the monks said to
contain the Blood of Christ.[2] There is nothing left of the
now-vanished Winchcombe Abbey. St Peter's Church in the centre of the
town is noted for its grotesques.
Walks
Winchcombe sits on six long-distance footpaths : The Cotswold Way, the
Gloucestershire Way, the Wychavon Way, St Kenelm's Trail, St Kenelm's
Way,[3] the Warden's Way and the Windrush Way. Winchcombe became a
member of the Walkers are Welcome network of towns in July 2009 and now
holds a walking festival every May.
