Discovered Tewkesbury

Discovered Tewkesbury at the weekend. The Abbey church is still standing, unlike Abingdon. We went to a choral evensong with some lovely singing. We were in the choir area where the monks would have sat as there was a small congregation.

Like Abingdon, Tewkesbury had severe floods in 2007. Both the River Severn and the River Avon run alongside the town, and join here.

Wetherspoons - The Royal Hop Pole - had school art work on the walls about the flood.
