Warwickshire The River Avon divided Warwickshire into two parts.On the south side of river lay Feldon which Speede described as, "with their green mantle is so embroidered with flowers we may behold another Eden". To the north lay the Forest of Arden (the refuge of Celia and Rosalind in Shakespeare's play "As you like it") which supported a large population of small holders and landless cottagers. Although its churches and castles were built from stone, most of the Warwickshire buildings tended to be black-and-white timber framed or cob dwellings. |

Although its churches and castles were built from stone, most of the Warwickshire
buildings tended to be black-and-white timber framed or cob dwellings. But unfortunately, this resulted in many of its towns being periodically destroyed by fire. Shakespeare's birthplace of Stratford-upon-Avon was severely damaged twice in the 1590's, again in 1648 and once again in 1641. |
