It’s an historic town with many original buildings such as The Merchant’s House (situated right next door to Specsavers) which was built following the Great Fire of London in 1653. There is a regular market twice a week as well as numerous events taking place throughout the year; local jazz festivals, funfairs, literary festivals, food festivals and the famous Barbury International Horse Trails nearby.
