Evesham Abbey’s 14th-century almonry (place where alms were handed out) is the unforgettable setting for the town’s museum. In 12 rooms you can find out about historical events like the Battle of Evesham (1265) during the Second Barons’ War. There are treasures from an Anglo-Saxon burial, pieces of clothing from the 1700s, displays of local agricul...
The grounds of Evesham Abbey are a joy, especially if you’re in town with smaller children. In summer there’s a water play fountain to complement the park’s generous playground. For a moment of peace you can wander along the lime avenue next to the Avon and pause by the lily pool and the many ornamental flower beds. There are boat trips on the rive...
The building itself suffered a fate that was echoed across England in the 16th century when it was torn down during the Dissolution of the Monasteries under Henry VIII. In its heyday this Benedictine community was one of the richest in the country, and the original site covered more than 8,300 square metres. All that remains today of the abbey chur...
The second of a trio of enthralling religious buildings in the centre Evesham is a defunct church founded in the 12th century by the monks of Evesham Abbey. The monument has had a difficult history, losing its vicar in the mid-17th century and then its roof at the turn of the 19th century. In the 1830s the church was repaired, and a north aisle was...
If you find yourself around Evesham in early spring you have to take some time exploring in the surrounding Vale of Evesham. This landscape has an abundance of fruit trees, producing plums, apples, cherries and pears. There are around 3,000 acres of orchards in the Vale of Evesham alone, and the blossom trail adds up to 45 miles in all. The dates c...
One way to enjoy the Evesham Vale’s pastoral countryside without straying far from the town is to visit to the Valley. Since 2002, this has been the site of the Evesham Vale Light Railway, a 15-inch line more than a mile in length. You’ll ride in a semi-open coach or a refined saloon carriage, pulled by one of five steam or diesel locomotives. It’s...
Not a typical movie theatre, the Regal Cinema is an Art Deco marvel designed by Hurley Robinson in 1932 and now a Grade II-listed monument. The building came through a restoration in the 2000s, reopening as a performing arts centre for the whole community. So while you can watch Hollywood blockbusters and new independent films, the Regal Cinema als...
Site of the light railway, the Valley is an attraction that almost defies description. In 125 acres of peaceful rural scenery it’s a cross between a country park, a garden centre and a pedestrian mall. So while you can amble along trails and take picnics, you can also do a spot of shopping at outdoorsy stores like Mountain Warehouse and Barbour. Bl...
At the end of Boat Lane to the west of Evesham there’s a pedestrian cable ferry across the Avon. The ferry is manually operated; after you step onto the vessel the ferryman will pull you to the opposite bank using the cable, which then sinks to the riverbed to allow normal traffic to pass by. You can reach the ferry on foot in around 15 minutes fro...

The auditorium can seat 312, while there’s an exhibition space and a studio theatre for 60 spectators, as well as a licensed bar and cafe...
