Bretforton
Bretforton is the largest farming village near Evesham just 4.5 miles away. Horticulture is thriving and the village is a delightful mix of red brick terraced farm workers cottages, black and white thatched cottages and larger manor houses and barn conversions.
Hayman-Joyce Broadway says, if it’s a thriving village life you are looking for then Bretforton is definitely for you. Property prices also tend to be lower than the Cotswolds.
Life is very much based around the Fleece Inn. Originally built as a longhouse in Chaucer’s time – internally little has changed and unusually the Inn is now owned by the National Trust. Today any significant entertainment such as Morris dancing or visiting music events take place in or around the Fleece.
Equally famous is the award winning Bretforton Silver Brass Band formed in 1895. Made up of 30 amateur musicians they regularly perform in the village.
Bretforton has a community shop, a village hall, British Legion branch, a Sports and Social Club and if cricket is your passion, a lovely cricket ground.
The village is blessed with two schools Bretforton Pre-School and Bretforton First School. The local Church of St.Leonard is at the centre of village life, a grade 1 listed building dating back to the 12th century.
Bretforton is also home to a large Jacobean Manor House which the owners share with the community featuring many events. It has some lovely gardens with oak trees over 300 years old.
