We took a day trip from the town Banbury which less than an hour drive. We visited the Avon twice because we can’t possibly see them all in one trip. The town story begins in 1196.......very very old city and lot of history if anyone is a history buff. William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616) was born at Stratford-upon-Avon in a house in Henley Street. This house is preserved intact.
Visitors to Stratford-upon-Avon can see all of the original five Shakespeare houses that are carefully restored and managed by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust so visitors can experience how they lived in the 1600's.
