What is The Cotswolds? - England’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Hello from Georgia. I was in the Cotswolds in October. Love Shipton Under Wychwood. This is where I stay when I visit. And where I hope to be when I retire from Education in three years.

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Hi Tanya! Are you new to the Magenta Otter Tribe? If so, welcome! And we definitely should chat about retirement plans... I had wanted to retire to a Cotswolds cottage for many many years, and then finally ended up buying a flat in nearby Cheltenham instead. I assume you mean Georgia the state with peaches... not the country that was a soviet republic ;-) We live in Texas when we are not in Gloucestershire, so I get the whole Southern thing! I'm not sure if I've been to Shipton Under Wychwood. It is not a place I feature in this series... but I promise to show a LOT of other places!! As you know, the Cotswolds has hundreds of lovely villages, towns and hamlets... despite being only 800 square miles! Looking forward to chatting with you more! Cheers XX Dara

A great portrayal. It’s incredible how many old buildings there are here, a direct connection to life hundreds of years ago.

It was interesting to visit the Cotswold stone quarry where they were shipping stone to Dallas, TX to build homes.

[@nicksykes4575]

I used to collect stone from the Hansons quarry at Daglingworth, was that the one you went to Ian?

[@MagentaOtterTravels]

Aye! Such a fun story. I'm not sure I can work that into a vlog, but that was a uniquely fun memory!

[@ians3586]

@@nicksykes4575 it was the Syreford Quarry near Andoversford but Hansons isn’t far away and probably produces a similar type of stone.

[@nicksykes4575]

@@ians3586 Yes, they're both yellow Cotswold stone. Most of the stone I collected was in the form of either 1/4 or 3/4 inch chippings for driveways. Occasionally large irregular lumps for building rockeries. Many years ago, I collected 3 squarish lumps of sandstone, averaging about 91/2 tons, from a disused quarry somewhere in Sussex. I think it was near Horsham, I took them to a stone cutting firm in Wem, a town in Shropshire. They had a giant band saw, and cut them into building blocks. I then had to deliver these blocks back to a site less than half a mile from the quarry, for a multi-millionaire who was having a mansion built.

Interesting fact for you. The top judges sit on a chair called the wool sack, and that comes from when land owners were the most important people except for royalty. The seat that the farmers/landowners sat on when deciding if someone had committed a crime was a sack made for collecting wool that was stuffed with both wool and haybales.

Then the most important people got the most comfortable seats in an era when most seats were probably not cushioned.

Not to be contrary but although the villages and architecture of the Cotswolds are lovely, in my view the farming landscape is pretty boring as so much is simply pasture and bits of woodland.
