Gloucestershire:
Vale and Forest of Dean Pt. 2 (Pevsner Buildings of England
S.)
The Vale of Gloucestershire is most famous for its two great
churches, Gloucester Cathedral and Tewkesbury Abbey, both Norman
buildings with brilliantly inventive late-mediaeval modifications.
Less well known are the intriguingly diverse monastic remains
at Gloucester, which also preserves a remarkable industrial
enclave around its 19th-century docks. The other major settlement
is Cheltenham, the greatest English spa town of Regency days,
with its fine parades of houses in stucco and stone. Country
houses include Thornbury Castle, greatest of Early Tudor private
houses, timber-framed manors such as Preston Court, and the
extravagantly Neo-Gothic Toddington; churches range from the
enigmatic Anglo-Saxon pair at Deerhurst to Randall Wells's Arts-and-Crafts
experiment at Ke A full overview is given in the introduction,
which includes specialist chapters on the earlier periods, vernacular
architecture, and geology and building materials. Numerous maps,
plans and over 120 photographs enhance the text, which also
has a glossary and comprehensive indexes. Tour

Walks in Gloucestershire (50 Walks In...)
Explore the beauty of Gloucestershire with this walking guide.
It offers over 50 walks around the country, including the Cotswolds
Water Park, Chipping Campden and Tewkesbury and provides places
to visit along the way, or extensions to make them easier or
more challenging. Each walk highlights a particular feature,
for instance wildlife, history or the countryside and ranges
from two to ten miles in length. A location map indicates the
starting point of the walk while topographical features are
clearly marked to guide you along the route. Information is
also provided on footpath signs, countryside access, walking
tips and safety guidelines and an introduction to the county
provides a brief background to the area. Tour

Gloucestershire:
A County Guide (Barnaby's Relocation Guides)
The project of surveying Gloucestershire at first seemed to
be almost too big to handle, indeed it involved multiple journeys
criss-crossing the county. But I think the result reveals the
great range of individual character in its many towns and villages:
compare traditional Cotswold centres such as Great Barrington
and Upper Slaughter in the north east with the intensely industrialised
districts of Yate and Filton above Bristol, or the Vale of Berkeley
bordering the Severn Estuary. To the west the ancient Forest
of Dean preserves its own mysterious aura.
