Tetbury

Tetbury is a small historic market town on the southern edge of the Cotswold hills in Gloucestershire, England, noted for its honey‑coloured Cotswold stone buildings and an attractive octagonal Market House. It grew rich on the medieval wool trade and still centres on a busy high street of independent shops, antiques dealers and traditional coaching inns, backed by the medieval tower of St Mary’s Church.

The town has a lively community life and a tourism‑led economy, with arts and community activity centred on places such as the Goods Shed, farmers’ markets and regular local events. Quirky traditions - most famously the annual Woolsack Races up and down Gumstool Hill - and proximity to estates like Highgrove give Tetbury a blend of rural agriculture, heritage and small‑business character that draws visitors and residents alike.
