RE: Bibury in the Cotswolds

in #geography7 years ago

Biburi is also considered one of the oldest villages in England. Pevere mention of it is found in the Doomsday Book (cadastral census of all the lands of England, begun under William the Conqueror in 1086) in the 11th century, where the village is recorded under the name Berberi (Becheberie). I must say that since that time not much has changed, except that there phone box, antenna, and Yes cars.

I was fascinated by the history I read, and hoped people would be interested and look it up to share. European history is worth the study.
