  • Shenington and Alkerton lie just beyond the north-eastern tip of the Cotswolds, falling into the remit of our travel guide Herbert Evans, who wrote the Highways and Byways in Oxford and the Cotswolds in 1905.
    Both villages are picturesque, with a tradition in Shenington of whitsuntide, whilst Alkerton has a lovely church.

    I enjoyed the tour of the church and the history of the Rector. It always fils me with awe and reverence for the sheer age of these villages. In America we have no buildings older than early Colonial times.

      That is interesting, as sports' commentators and all sorts of critics use the term error-srtewn or strewn with errors about a bad performance.

    What a beautiful place, would love to visit! Except through the grass time xD I'm allergic to newly cut grass, it would be horrible, haha.

    Robin, it seems of late that the videos are more and more focusing on the village church. Could you show a bit more of the village itself? Thank you!

    Sometime Robin, could you show your crew who works with you on your videos? That would be interesting.

    Man, some of his reviews of these quaint, cuddly, old churches are scathing😮 None of the churches in the Cotswolds would compare to the house of worship in my hometown- but each place has its own unique charm and I thought the first church was particularly well-rounded and interesting.
