Moreton-in-Marsh, a market town in the Cotswolds, known for its historic High Street, rich heritage, and excellent transport links.
Situated in north-east Gloucestershire within the Evenlode Valley, the town has been welcoming travellers for over 1,700 years, ever since the Romans built the Fosse Way. Its broad High Street is lined with elegant 17th- and 18th‑century Cotswold stone buildings, including the White Hart Royal, where King Charles I once sheltered during the Civil War, and the rare Curfew Tower with its original clock and bell. At the centre stands Redesdale Hall, the town’s main public hall, which hosts antiques and craft fairs. Moreton-in-Marsh is also famous for its weekly Tuesday market—one of the largest in the Cotswolds—and the annual Moreton Show each September, celebrating rural life and agriculture. With nearby attractions such as Batsford Arboretum, Bourton House Garden, and the Cotswold Falconry Centre, plus direct rail links to London, the town is both a gateway to the Cotswolds and a destination in its own right.
