Tetbury is a small market town set on the eastern edge of the Cotswold hills in Gloucestershire, England, noted for its honey-coloured Cotswold stone and well-preserved Georgian streets. The handsome 17th-century Market House anchors the historic centre, reflecting the town’s origins in the medieval wool trade and its continued appeal as a classic Cotswold destination.
Today the town’s economy and social life mix antiques and independent shops with tourism, seasonal markets and a lively local arts scene. Tetbury enjoys strong local and national interest because of nearby Highgrove estate and the spectacular planting at Westonbirt Arboretum, and retains quirky local traditions such as the annual Woolsack Races that celebrate its woollen heritage.
