One of the oldest canals in Britain, the Stroudwater is part way through a multimillion pound restoration.

The 102 miles of the Cotswold Way National Trail takes me from the exquisite limestone town of Chipping Campden to the majestic city of Bath. Nature has sculpted and nurtured the landscape into one of the most picturesque regions of England. Along the way I will take a look at how mankind has changed the face of the Cotswolds. I am going to explore all of the interesting places from early Neolithic burial mounds to the great Georgian architectures of Cheltenham and Bath. I will also be learning about "Cheese Rolling" and the many other local customs that add their own special character to this area. Come with me on my journey through the spectacular scenery of the Cotswold way and discover the wonders that make the Cotswolds one of England's favourite tourist destinations.
