Bradford-on-Avon
Bradford on Avon is a small country town in England between Bath and Trowbridge. The handsome buildings which climb up the hills from the 'broad ford' across the river are mostly Georgian, the legacy of a few hundred years of prosperity as a centre of a textile industry making fine woollen cloth from Cotswold sheep.| Tap on a place to explore it |
