Tetbury - The town of Tetbury is proud of it's 1300 years of recorded
history since 681 when Tetta's Monastery was mentioned in a charter by King Ethelred
of Mercia. In the Middle Ages, Tetbury was an important market town for the Cotswolds
wool trade and the town centre is still dominated by the splendid pillared Market
House built in 1655. The town is known as an 'architectural gem' as many of the wool
merchants houses still look as they did 300 years ago.
Tetbury is well known for it's many antique shops and it's close proximity to Prince
Charles's residence of High Grove.
