Hanwell - a village in the Cotswolds

by evaanna - last update: Aug 24, 2006

Charming thatched cottage at Hanwell
Hanwell is another lovely Cotswold village situated just north of Banbury. It has a nice church with an old graveyard and pleasantly shady lanes with some huge ancient trees around it, unfortunately much too big for my camera. Like all Cotswold villages, it has a pub, The Moon and Sixpence, and, unlike any of them, the Hanwell Community Observatory, whose aim is to promote astronomy and bring it closer to the general public. The observatory is housed in Hanwell Castle, now a private residence.

 Great that Hanwell has a Community Observatory. I'm sure not many other villages can make that claim.

 Houses made of natural stones and topped with thatched roof always look fantastic, right? Haha, that one in Hanwell looks georgeous!

 Dry stone walls were marvelous, and that introductory photo of the thatch-roofed cottage is most wonderful.
