SHIPSTON ON STOUR

Shipston on Stour is one of my favourite walks in the series and takes us through the narrow streets of one of the most unspoilt market towns in England.

Part of its charm is the mix of small shops and businesses there are butchers and haberdashers, bakers and antique shops and a wine vault of longstanding - with hardly a chain store in sight!

Our guides are Mike Ashley and Dick Burge who have lived in Shipston for more than 80 years - between them! And in that time they have gathered a pack of stories and artifacts for the museum which they run between them with an enthusiasm which is quite captivating.
