Introduction

I propose a walk through the most beautiful village in

England. It's called Bibury and is set between the eastern hills of

the Cotswolds, on the banks of the Coln River.

Bibury,England

Besides the idyllic location of fresh green almost all year round,

this village attracts attention through its stone constructions in the

honey color.

The main street, Arlington Row, can only be reached after walking

down a stone bridge.

On both sides of the street there are beautifully tucked houses in the

traditional still English cottage. Were built in the seventeenth century

and their original destination was warehouses for wool, the most

important source of income for locals was the sheep breeding. Over

time, they have been converted into homes, and nowadays many of them

have sheltered restaurants and hostels from three stars up.

It is a major destination for tourists visiting the traditional rural

villages, tea houses and many historic buildings of the Cotswold

District; it is one of six places in the country featured in Mini-Europe,

Brussels.

Arlington Row

In the center of the village is the old mill,

Arlington Mill,where corn was grinded. Now the

mill has been transformed into a museum of folk

culture and agricultural traditions . The mill, with

its water-based wheel, goes even better today than

a few hundred years ago.

Another reason for pride in Bibury is the

trout breed that annually produces over 10 million

rainbow trout delivered throughout England.

Tourists are attracted to the restaurants

that use as a "raw material" precisely this type of

very tasty trout. The fish can be bought either

fresh or smoked from the brewery store, or even

captured personally by amateurs. A lovely

landscaped park and the gardens of the Arlington

cottages, full of roses, make the atmosphere

idyllic.

Visitor attractions

On the other bank of the river, the village is grouped around

the old church of St. Mary, whose inspiring Saxon dates back to

the 8th century. Near the church is the Swan Hotel, the oldest

hotel in the village, a former inn of the century XVII.

Adjacent to the church is the village primary school that was

built in the 1850s. In 2015 the school had 43 pupils on its roll in

two classes.

On the Arlington (west) side of the village is Arlington Baptist

Church, where a congregation has been meeting since the 1740s.

The Primary School

While in Bibury, you really

need to visit the Arlington Row of

Weaver's Cottages, the Bibury Trout

Farm and the Arlington Mill,

although this is now a private

dwelling so only an outside view is

possible. Also take a short walk from

the Bibury village center to the

Church of St. Mary

The largest building in Bibury

is Bibury Court, built in 1633 in the

style of Jacobean architecture. It is a

Grade I listed building, and was

recently a hotel. Bibury Court, built in 1633.

Conclusion

The entire Cotswolds is full of charm so a visit there can only

be a joy. And the picturesque Bibury is one of the proofs that

history goes hand in hand with modern times, and the traces they

leave are valued and remembered.
