The market town of Evesham grew up around its abbey, one of the largest in England. Although much of the abbey was destroyed during the Reformation, what remains is still a remarkable reminder of its past glories. The town’s prosperity also came from being a centre of market gardening, although that has declined in recent years. Evesham’s history has left it with a wealth of fascinating buildings, from those associated with the abbey and through its town hall, churches, chapels, pubs and public halls to more modern times with its railway stations, hotels, cinema, college and sports clubs.
Evesham in 50 Buildings explores the history of this town in Worcestershire through a selection of its most interesting buildings and structures, showing the changes that have taken place over the years. This book will appeal to all those who live in Evesham or who have an interest in the area.
Stan Brotherton is Evesham born-and-bred. He has a background in teaching, accountancy, technology, management consultancy and charity work. He was treasurer for the local Bell Tower Appeal, and managed the development phase of the associated Conservation Project. He was a founding trustee and treasurer of the Evesham Abbey Trust, working to conserve and investigate the site of Evesham’s long-lost abbey (founded c.700; dissolution 1540). As a life member of the Vale of Evesham Historical Society (VEHS), he has worked on a range of local heritage projects (plaques, panels, displays, talks, articles, etc.). From his earliest days he has had an abiding interest in the history and heritage of his home town, the ancient and picturesque market town of Evesham.
