Description

Evesham Through Time by Stan Brotherton explores the rich history and heritage of this picturesque market town in Worcestershire. Founded by St Ecgwine in the early eighth century, Evesham Abbey grew into one of the most important abbeys in England, leaving a lasting legacy that can still be seen today. The town's strategic location at the heart of the Vale of Evesham made it an ideal centre for horticulture, particularly market gardening and the cultivation of asparagus. This unique combination of natural beauty and productive land has contributed to Evesham's reputation as a thriving market town since the 1820s. Today, visitors can still experience the town's festivals, browse its shops and cafés, and explore its ancient churches. From its Anglo-Saxon roots to its current status as a popular tourist destination, Evesham Through Time offers a fascinating glimpse into the town's history and development over the centuries.
