HAWKESBURY UPTON
Hawkesbury Upton began as a farm mentioned in a document of
AD
972, but the village
has grown very little in its thousand-year history. In fact its expansion has been
suprisingly limited, considering its prominent position on the wolds just west of the
Bath road, and most of its buildings are less than a hundred years old.
