Extract from the Burford Travel Guides:
Nine miles north of Lechlade you get your first real taste of the Cotswolds at
BURFORD
, where the magnificent High Street, which slopes down to the bridge over the
River Windrush
, holds every variety of golden Cotswold stone. Try to avoid visiting the town in summer, when cars and tourists battle for space, though the huge
parish church
, originally Norman but remodelled in the fifteenth century, is a delight at any time. An unusual monument to Henry VIII's barber, Edmund Harman, shows four Amazonian Indians, said to be the first representation of native Americans in Britain.
