Bibury

Bibury is one of the Cotswolds' pretty little villages. Indeed, William Morris deemed it "the most beautiful village in England." The church is not one of the fifty or so great ones, but was interesting enough, especially for its relative antiquity. Records of Bibury go back to the 8th century.

The Arlington Row...printed on the inside of British passports;
now owned by the National Trust

Nearby water; no tour buses, but otherwise pretty crowded


Flora

Not the Laburnam Arch, but pretty nice

The church: Church of St. Mary

I was about to comment on disrespect when I saw
the "dogs welcome" sign; England!

Not Christian

Lovely village. The church ceilings are fabulous...and the gargoyles are, too!
