As the birthplace of William Shakespeare, the quaint town of Stratford-upon-Avon is steeped in a rich history and culture situated in the heart of the Warwickshire countryside. OS Landranger map 151 shows this area, and includes a section of the E2 European Long Distance path which cuts through the region, passing through the Cotswold Hills. Visiting Warwick Castle is a must for one of Britain's best Medieval experiences and nearby Banbury can also offer a range of historical attractions. |
