Great Bourton

The most prominent feature of this village is the unusual detached church bell tower - said to be one of only three in England. The Bell Inn on the left was destroyed by fire in the 1920s and subsequently re-built. Although hard to believe now, Great Bourton was once a centre for nail-making.
