Architecture, Stratford upon Avon, England
This morning, our tour group departed lodgings at Cambridge in eastern England and then drove north-west to Stratford upon Avon. Here we spent time walking around this historic town, visited Shakespeare’s birthplace in Henley Street, had a pub lunch and then walked along the bank of the River Avon to Trinity Church and Shakespeare’s burial place. Weather remained dry.

After Stratford we drove south to Cirencester, the former Roman town of Corinium to view the impressive amphitheatre, second largest in Roman Britain after that at Londinium (London).
