Cirencester is the capital of the Cotswolds, not only fantastic to discover in of itself but also a superb base to explore the Cotswolds further. For those interested in the history of Cirencester, the Corinium Museum showcases some exquisite mosaics and jewellery from the Roman era. A must-see feature of Cirencester, the impressive gothic architecture of the Church of St John the Baptist towers majestically over the centre of town. Alternatively, Cirencester House lies to the west of town, boasting one of the finest landscape gardens in England. Laid by the first Earl of Bathurst in 1714, this hidden gem provides a fantastic location for an afternoon stroll.

History of Cirencester

In 2AD Cirencester, then known as Corinium, was the second largest town after London, with nearly 10,000 inhabitants. However, after the collapse of the Roman Empire little was documented until the early 1100s when Henry I founded the Abbey, which was finalised in 1176. While the Abbey was, and remains an endearing part of Cirencester, it wasn’t until the 15^th, 16^th and 17^th Centuries that Cirencester rose to prominence again with its economy focusing on sheep-rearing, wool sales and cloth making, with “Cirencester cloth” being a highly sought after commodity.
