Banbury Town
| A nursery rhyme, 'Ride a Cock Horse', has made Banbury
one of the best-known towns in England. It has been suggested that the

I. More likely it was a local girl who rode in a May Day procession. The
original cross was pulled down at the end of the 16th century. The
present cross was erected in 1859 to celebrate the wedding of the then
Princess Royal to Prince Frederick of Prussia. |
Moreton-in-Marsh Market Town
| The high street has many elegant eighteenth-century inns and houses including the Redesdale Market Hall, a Victorian 'Tudor' building of some distinction. The oldest building is likely to be the sixteenth-century Curfew tower on the High Street. It's bell was rung nightly until 1860 to remind people of the risk of fire at night. The Parish church of St. David was originally a chapel of ease for Bourton-on-the-Hill and in 1858 was rebuilt in medieval style. |
