Stratford-upon-Avon

We are lucky, in that this is our closest town!



As you can imagine, Arthur Mee, in The King's England (1949),
devotes many pages to Stratford -- including this moving opening passage:

"It is the heart of the heart of England. We look out upon this lovely countryside
and feel as Shakespeare felt; it is a precious stone set in a silver sea.
So near it is to him that we should hardly be surprised
to see him walking here."
