Property, Houses and Flats for Sale in Chipping Campden, Gloucestershire

Historian G.M. Trevelyan described Chipping Campden High Street as: ‘The most beautiful village street left on the island’ and it is no overstatement. The terraces of honey-coloured limestone date from the 14th–17th centuries and were built from locally quarried Cotswold stone. A rich wool trading centre in the Middle Ages: ‘Chipping’ means market and ‘Campden’ is a Saxon word for fields. Market Hall, in the centre of Chipping Campden, was built in 1627 and its perfect arches are a fine example of the masons’ skills that are exemplified in the Church of St James, built in the 15th century; the vastly extravagant 17th century monuments to Sir Baptist Hicks; the exquisite terrace of Almshouses, and the Woolstaplers’ Hall.
