Cirencester,
The Heart of the Cotswolds,
6 miles from The Old Rectory B&B
Cirencester (Roman City of Corinium) is acknowledged as the Capital of The Cotswolds and is some 6 miles (10km) from Rodmarton. Here can be found a Roman Amphitheatre and a Museum containing important Roman artefacts including the finest Mosaic flooring anywhere in The United Kingdom. Travelling up the Foss Way (A429) there are many interesting and beautiful villages, including Chedworth (where there is a Roman Villa) all distinguished by the mellow coloured stone with which the buildings are constructed.
