Evesham was an important town in the Middle Ages, its abbey being one of the largest in Europe. One of the country’s earliest musical theorists, Walter Odington, was a monk there. The abbey was home to famous monks, abbots, martyrs and saints. Of particular note, the town was the scene of the famous (infamous?) Battle of Evesham in 1265. Situated on the River Avon, the area is also noted for its rich soil and long history of fruit and vegetable production, and market gardening is still strongly associated with Evesham.

Celebrating Evesham chronicles the proud heritage of Evesham, its important moments and what draws so many to this thriving town today. Illustrated throughout, this fascinating book offers a marvellous and refreshingly positive insight into Evesham’s rich heritage, its special events and important moments. This book will be a valuable contribution to the history of the town and provide a source of many memories to those who have known it well over the years.
