The Buttlands is a large ‘village green’ area ringed by lime trees. Several elegant Georgian houses overlook this square, as do the Crown Hotel, the Globe Inn and the town’s Roman Catholic Church. Although the title deeds of The Buttlands go back to 1691, ownership of the land was conveyed to Thomas, Earl of Leicester in 1758 and it remained in possession of the same family until 1937 when the title deeds were presented to the townspeople.
