“Deserted Medieval Settlements in the North Cotswolds”

Wednesday, 7th January

Abbeyfields Community Centre, Back Lane, Winchcombe, Cheltenham GL54 5QH

David Aldred will talk about settlements near Winchcombe which show signs of desertion in the later Middle Ages before c1550. What do we mean by ‘desertion’? What can still be found in the landscape that might tell us why they were deserted.

Housed in the former Town Hall, our friendly, volunteer-led Museum brings to life the town’s long and rich history, and gives the chance to explore, enjoy and be inspired by the past in and around this ancient Cotswold town. There is no entrance charge, but as a registered charity we rely on donations, so your generosity can help us to continue our work.
